*Just a quick update, as we enter Power off season (for a brief period before RK returns in winter) I will be dropping down to the usual off season schedule of just Sundays and Wednesday uploads (mainly Sundays)*
@@magrethshigwedha I would, but I don't want to rinse and repeat same old storylines when there's nothing new/fresh to discuss! I'm sure it won't be long before the trailer for RK drops then it will be back to the usual. Thank you for the love, I really appreciate it 🙏🏼
Davis the most underrated character in the Power Universe. 1. He basically became a mentor/father figure that kept Tariq grounded. He was always a call away. 2. He knew how to play both sides. Gang vs gang, gang vs task force, task force vs lawyers. He never swayed fully unless necessary so his enemies were few. 3. One of the most realistic characters throughout. He put every situation he was in into perspective before just acting out(brother arc a little exception.) 4. Was actually a damn good lawyer. 5. Was really ghost if you think about it. All in all he really embodied the essence of 'Power'. Always knew when to hold em and when to fold em.
Davis definitely could hold his own and was of some guidance to Tariq but see how smart Davis was he knew Tariq was smart too. Tariq put Davis up to the play on Noma. As always like Ghost Tariq is the one who always plans things out. Just in this season he went full on chess. Manipulating a lot of situations to work in his favor.
I mean…I wouldn’t say Davis was like another father figure? But more like a big brother to Tariq, if Tariq was in trouble Davis will help but at the same time it’s not for free 😂! He do give Tariq advice no doubt, but a father figure nah. Cause if that’s the case he would be spending more time with him on that level.
Riq was gifted his power 🔋 by the writers. We do not believe that Riq is a kingpin! We do not believe that Noma's brother would put him on. Everything is way too convenient in season 4. The issue with this show is that everything that happens in later seasons undermines previous episodes.
@@peek_bear be honest once Ms. kemp announce she is leaving the power verse STARZ writers were thrilled reason well season three and four enough said. Ms.kemp stay trust me we would’ve had a banging season three and a ruthless season four with a true cliffhanger
In real life Tariq would of got wiped off in season 1 of book 2 he wouldnt of made it to 4 seasons hes smart and witty but nuthin like ghost Tommy or kanan
Even young kanan know how to fight and hasn't been extorted starz failed with this spin off and owe us atleast one more season the story is unfinished and the writers did a horrible job with book 2
Exactly, Casper is his name And how on earth can he be top dog looking like he has just started puberty ? He DoES NOT LOOK THE PART SO THE SHOW CANNOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY, and to be honest Tariq and Bradon haven't got the physicality to beat a grown man like Zion so that's not realistic because had Tariq a Bradon attacked Tommy or Ghost they would both lose but we believe the unrealistic stript 😂
I hate how people keep saying Ghost's downfall was trying to Live a Double Life etc... How.??? He literally Succeeded in Both.... he was Killed by his Naive Ungrateful Son under the Influence of his HoodRat Wife.. his Downfall was completely separate from his "Double Life"..
He was about to go to jail, re watch episode 10 of season six , Blanca was coming to arrest him that night for terry silver, Tariq just got to him first
@@slimsimmchris1678 how many times have u seen ghost being arrested in his club and still gets out of jail or not dead, the storyline they tried to narrate with Tariq was a complete mess.
@slimsimmchris1678 I feel you... But that's a Hypothetical Outcome.. Which Didnt Happen... What Did Happen was.. His Son Killed him. So people can't just Keep Making Up and running with "His Down Fall was a Double Life".. thats just Not True.. you Cant just Write your Own Story..
Tiny Ghost or Casper at most, I kinda like the nickname Casper for Tariq though it shows he isn’t Ghost himself but he has a lot of Ghost in himself so Casper is the right name for Tariq now at the end of S4 fs
Tariq has the feds gunning for him at 22 whereas Ghost was literally 3 moves ahead of them at that age. He never cut Tommy off because Tommy was him in the streets and the reason why Ghost was respected and feared.
He only has the feds on him because of his name. Ghost wasn't known federally but only locally. Ghost SAVED Tommy and took him up under his wing. Kanan taught them both the game. Ghost was more cerebral and vicious when needed but Tommy was just vicious.
Everyone had said the Tariq is smarter than Ghost at the same age and how you know what Ghost was doing freshly into his 20s? The feds know Tariq as ghost's son. He was first on their radar literally because of ghost.
I’d say Tariq still has some work to do before fully earning the nickname "Ghost." He’s made some moves that echo his father’s legacy, outsmarting enemies, manipulating situations, and proving he can be just as ruthless. But Ghost was a different level, a master at controlling every angle. Tariq’s growing into that role, but he’s not there yet. The nickname might fit in spirit, but the mastery that made Ghost who he was? Tariq still needs time to fully claim that.

Hell no. Ghost MADE power and OG Power is WAYYY better than all of these spin offs. Ghost was also an action star. Tariq would be the first action "star" to lose all his fights. Like Tariq said - he's nothing like his father, he's nothing like Ghost.
@@LouisLitt369 nah. OG Power had cool characters like Ghost and Tommy in some tight situations. It had way better villains too like Lobos, snakes like Dre. Not geeks like Ronnie. RK needs to focus on making Kanan the prominent figure cos right not its Raq thats the main character, THEN comes Kanan and he's not even the fan favourite. That would most likely be Marvin.
Courtney was determined to erase Omari and anoint Michael Rainy Jr. she had to create a fictional version to the word that you can get over in the drug game and retire a drug dealer. This is never and will never be a reality. In the world of entertainment you can create the fantasy and narratives you want. He don’t even look right playing a gangsta but it make sense why they had to end this because they wouldn’t be able to continue this storyline with Micheal Rainy looking very weak with fighting and living in the his father shadow. Courtney Kemp knew when to bow out.
Honestly the college student-drug dealer persona fit him perfectly. They should've played more on his innocent look by making him more cold and calculative than Ghost. You can't be weak and impulsive while trying to be a kingpin. It doesn't make sense.
I can give Tariq props for learning from his dads mistakes, but he will never exceed the level his father was on. Ghost’s rep is doing him favours such as his meet with Zion as he stated he only took the meeting cus of his last name
Tariq got that spot on his own tho, Zion ain't give him shit in that meet but a free sample. Then homey took that sample and flipped it into the position he's in now. Thats a crazy MFing flip. Homie was broke wit nothing but Davis phone number, started at square one and blew to the top of the game without setting someone up to go to jail to take their spot like ghost did kanan. Tariq started his own operation from scratch several times. Ghost honestly never did.
@@selwynandrews7716 Using underground parties and a single college campus to distribute drugs can’t compare to what Ghost did his Operation touched all 5 boroughs of NY. Tariq has never built an “operation” as sophisticated as his father’s. Ghost was washing money constantly through Truth. I’ll admit Tariq is smart and resourceful but Ghost had the streets on lock Tariq’s turf is literally just stansfield he is nowhere near the top of the game. Ghost didn’t have to build his operation “Several times” because his business never crashed unlike Tariq’s business😂
@@selwynandrews7716 I wouldn't say that. The entire Course Correct thing came together through that gay dude that was with Howard Stern, who introduced them because he was Ghost's kid. Did he not have that connection he woulda set nothing up, as that's the very thing that allowed him to bank.
techincally yes, because of his operation but he hasn't earned his father's name because: - He doesn't have the street cred - Isn't intimidating at all - Ghost stayed off the federal radar for 20+ years, the feds knew Tariq killed Ray Ray after a couple of months 😂
Tariq should be called THE REBORN. Mf ain’t no ghost blanca and Jenny know about our 18 year old hitter. Ghost was a ghost for over 25+ years and was so good at it that he was getting elected into office. How can you have an entire drug network but the world is none the wiser 🤣. GHOST IS IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT CALIBRE
You got it backwards imo, Blanca and Jenny knew who Tariq was, lost every case they brought against him, and now has nothing on him. He is in the wind to them NOW. He's a ghost going forward, like on some jack reacher shit. Where ghost may have had that for over 25 years he wasnt put on the feds radar by his high profile drug kingpin father. Ghost would still be in jail if not for Angela blowing up the case and Teresi covering for that dumbass murder he committed while locked up. Ghost was unknown to start and ended wit the feds on his ass. Tariq started with the feds on his ass and maneuvered to a position where he is know unknown and insulated. Thats more impressive to me
@@Jigaboo1929 interesting take. I never saw it that way, I thought she always liked Tariq because she saw Lorenzo in him from their younger years. Monet also help Lorenzo get the edge he needed to get where he was. Like Tasha helped Ghost. I feel like that's why Tariq respected Monet because she was savvy like Tasha when it came to the game.
This is far from over between Tariq & Brayden regarding the resentment Brayden feels being demoted. Especially how Brayden saved Tariq’s life at the end of season 3 and lost his family…. I could imagine how Brayden feels and he damn sure won’t forget. The way Brayden walked down those steps during his last scene was very cold…. Just wait….
I just need to Tariq to Truly understand his father, and to stop disrespecting him at any given point. For me, that's one huge roadblock that's stopping him from becoming Ghost.
Tariq always said he’s not like his dad. Ghost did not even teach Tariq the game. I don’t know why people want him to be like or better than Ghost. But he’ll settle for the name Lil Ghost 😂
Ghost was successful cause nobody knew James St Patrick was Ghost. Tariq been on FBIs radar since he started in the game (mainly due to him & parents actions). So nah, he didnt earn it.
We are comparing a 20 year old Tariq to a 40 year old battle tested Ghost… we don’t know what trials and tribulations Ghost went through in his early stages of the game
Ghost still probably smarter and better than Tariq at his age it don't matter how the show started Tariq would not make it to 40 getting beat up and extorted every season
ghost was a corner boy working for kanan & breeze at Tariq’s age they aren’t the same person respectfully Riq more ruthless then ghost at that offed dat man in the middle of his club then put on a lil scene moments after to alibi himself he was on dawg shit
Tariq James St Patrick, Class of 2024. I would be surprised if the final episode would be Tariq graduating, considering he didn’t do a lick of homework since Season One 😂
In my opinion Tariq's mind is what makes him "Ghost" like. He doesnt have the physicality of Ghost but uses his mind brilliantly. He's not afraid to kill and use whoever to get his way. He also has a control issue, like his father not sure if thats good or bad yet. Finally Tariq choosing to be in the game fully, no family, no ties, no emotional connections is what might save him one day...if no one finds out about Tasha and company. My verdict has to do more to earn the name and Tommy has to bestow it upon him.
Tariq hasn't earned that name yet. Not by a long shot. He has a way to go it's just the beginning love the video Movie Bot stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
He can never be Ghost. Ghost was super smart and polished. No one could get to him, Tariq just caught him slipping. Tariq got played and ran over his whole series and always needed help. He can be little Tasha green. He’s green like his mom and the name.
No he didn't earn it at all, no one knew who James st Patrick really was, his crimes his alter ego Ghost except a handful of people, Tariq is almost always in the lime light for bad reasons
Tariq avoided having attachments in the game because Tariq didn't wanna lose focus on the game just like Lobos was telling Ghost about Tommy. Milan tried to tell Tommy this.
Can’t compare them unless we knew what ghost was doing at 20 and not at 40. Tariq looking like he bout to be running NY at 20 def a clear jump on ghost at that age. Comparing 40 year old to 20 year old doesn’t make sense though.
Yeah i totally agree Tommy should be Tariq’s final mentor and Tommy is the best person to determine whether Tariq is worthy of his father’s name Ghost 💯💯
This guy’s series was stolen from him by the Tejada’s particularly Cane. Tariq is the definition of not knowing what to do with your life. One minute he says he wants out the game, the next he is talking about being an apex predator 😹😹. Wtf was wrong with the writers. That’s why I love Raising Kanan. The writers there seem to know what they are doing with the show, no contradictions.
Tariq is a corn flakes 😂😂 that mf ain’t nowhere near Ghost/James St Patrick ….for seasons straight that mf getting his ass choked out, tricked by fools and getting extorted 😂 plus he got Brayden and Diana to get him implicated in murders 😂😂
I think Tariq has finally reached the point he needed to feel like ghost. But to be exactly like ghost, I think his journey finally starts now. He still has a lot more to do before he’s worthy of the name. So far like ghost, Tariq has a pretty nice team. Has someone in law enforcement and influence. Niko and Tate. His business trio, Brayden, him and Effie. A Joe proctor.. Davis. Has spies. Pinky. All he needs is muscle. He’s getting there but not yet.
@@shaawoomusic nah kanan and breeze named him ghost when riq is walking with kanan he clearly says ya father always knew how to dissappear thats why we called him ghost
@bruhhh_4203 what are you talking about a 20 year old ghost was working under Kanan and Tariq is 23 and has NYC on Lock and cops working for him and he's not distracted like Ghost was lol yall salty
I’m so happy this show is off the air. They lost me at the end, I know it’s fictional but wow. Diane went from being a college kid to being a sharp shooter from 20 yards shooter smh
Big difference between ghost having to hustle until he made it and Tariq being born with a silver spoon and having a trust fund. He had his chance to make it big legally and turned his back.
No, Tariq is nowhere near Ghost level yet. If anyone deserves that title, it would be Cane!!! Cane is and has always been a beast!!! A force to be reckoned with!! He is a bit of a hot 🔥 head, which makes him dangerous!!! He puts in that work by any means necessary!!!! That fighting scene in the ring with Zion showed how strong and powerful Cane really is!! Zion had to resort to using brass knuckles because he knew he wouldn't be able to defeat him. This speaks volumes because Zion was a beast himself!!! I liked how Cane defended his mom towards the end, but I was shocked that he was caught slipping with Noma, not knowing what her intentions were for Monet. I think his plan was to eventually get Noma for all her dough and get rid of her. But it didn't quite play out like that! In the end, Cane went out like a "G" by escaping the police after being shot several times and killing Noma!! Now that's what I call "Ghost" status!!
Movie Bot the GOAT !!! Tariq hasn't earned shit yet .. street names are given from others not by yourself .. Tommy is the only one who has that right to call him that ..
He hadn’t earned his father name, but he is on his way if he can keep the power in New York. The only real threat to him now would be the Italians and Elisa Marie. Tommy being his final mentor would be the cherry on top cause in my eyes he is the game and Tommy would have him tap into all of his mentors when it’s all said and done. Tommy will never fully trust Tariq due to him taking out & Kanan so he will keep him close but keep him distant as well.
Why do you people love ghost 👻 so much he was not all that he made plenty of mistakes he wanted his son to turn himself in for killing Ray Ray and he killed countless people the way he treated Tasha truth be told ghost 👻 was the biggest hipacrite in power universe get off this ghost 👻 shit he gone and he aint coming back Tariq is ghost reincarnated face it he's just young
My son inherited my old xbox account and not after too long, he changed the name. However, to my surprise, he called me one day and asked if he could change it back to my old name. He let me know how much he liked it and thought it was cool, and I realized at that moment how my boy wanted to be like his old man and fit into my shoes. not even just in the world of gaming, but most aspects of life, how our kids look up to us. they really do inherit our skills, hobbies, and even personality for better or worse.
I read a comment that said the series mostly centered around the Tejadas and I agree. They made the show mostly about the Tejadas and threw Tariq in there to help with ratings
I say this I’m very excited for the next chapter of ghost. The writers will have some time to really map out the season. No more writers strikes etc. I think it’s gonna be interesting to see this next season. One last thing 😂 YALL this show way too serious 💀
While he is the top dog, his only downside is he still needs to take some boxing lessons I’m hoping while he’s in Chicago for a brief stent with Braden he takes some boxing lessons. And no, he’s nowhere near his father‘s level so his nickname is Casper Junior.
Tyriq has the mind of Ghost, but the actions and personality of Kanan. I'm yet to see any of Tommy in the character of Tyriq, but I agree Tommy is the only one who can stamp Tyriq with the name of Ghost.
Well Diana was staying with salims family, and salim told them about her needing to stay with them. So naturally if salims family comes to check on him and finds him dead, they'd have to point the finger at Diana because they have proof of her running to them Before salim was killed. Or maybe they'll just ignore that in the writers room. Who knows
I think ppl forget when we mate ghost he was old and had time to improve himself and his thought process. The end of season 4 was Tariq stepping into the shoes of ghost and so he is developing becoming better... ppl forget Tariq is a teenager and has so much room to grow... once power origin starts we will see ghost learn the game and become ghost... just as Tariq is learning... so ppl need to remember that
I agree with you the quick answer is Absolutely not. I don’t know how he’s on top of the drug game in NYC. Noma wasn’t on top she was finding her network. He’s simply expanded his network and took over Noma’s spot. He doesn’t have a legit business unless he was able to acquire Noma’s Jet company. Don’t get me wrong Noma/Mecca weren’t insignificant in the Game but they weren’t at the top when we truly examine the landscape and context.
An educated, private-pay, Ivy-leaguer will never compare to his “up-by-the-bootstraps” father…even if his father further poisoned the community in the name of getting ahead. Forgive my run-on, yet properly punctuated, sentence.
I think the next spinoff should stop compating Tariq to Ghost. Coz he's not Ghost, but he is Riq. He is different, and sone would say in a better way than Ghost
We didn’t see Ghost becoming Ghost in his early years. I think we gotta cut Tariq some slack! Tariq is actually on his way…he’s still learning and understanding himself.

@@selwynandrews7716 I wouldn't say that. The entire Course Correct thing came together through that gay dude that was with Howard Stern, who introduced them because he was Ghost's kid. Did he not have that connection he woulda set nothing up, as that's the very thing that allowed him to bank.
techincally yes, because of his operation but he hasn't earned his father's name because:
- He doesn't have the street cred
- Isn't intimidating at all
- Ghost stayed off the federal radar for 20+ years, the feds knew Tariq killed Ray Ray after a couple of months 😂
Lol then technically no. Nothing about Tariq gives power or ghost. If it wasn’t for Davis. Tariq wouldn’t have gotten as far as he did.
😂😂 killed once and had the whole family in jeopardy
Tariq should be called THE REBORN. Mf ain’t no ghost blanca and Jenny know about our 18 year old hitter. Ghost was a ghost for over 25+ years and was so good at it that he was getting elected into office.
How can you have an entire drug network but the world is none the wiser 🤣. GHOST IS IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT CALIBRE
Exactly. Too many folks making excuses for the foolishness.
No lies detected.
You got it backwards imo, Blanca and Jenny knew who Tariq was, lost every case they brought against him, and now has nothing on him. He is in the wind to them NOW. He's a ghost going forward, like on some jack reacher shit.
Where ghost may have had that for over 25 years he wasnt put on the feds radar by his high profile drug kingpin father.
Ghost would still be in jail if not for Angela blowing up the case and Teresi covering for that dumbass murder he committed while locked up.
Ghost was unknown to start and ended wit the feds on his ass. Tariq started with the feds on his ass and maneuvered to a position where he is know unknown and insulated. Thats more impressive to me
He inherited the smoke that ghost had not that hard
@@tyounger3687mfs too dumb to piece that together though, they act like Riq started with a clean slate like Ghost did.
People knew about him and what he was doing as soon as he started even had video proof...nothing like ghost
Cane character actually would have evolved more into Ghost if they didn't end early
Cane is not nearly as smart
It be crazy if the phone call isnt Tommy but Dianna asking Tariq to help Cane 😅😅
Lol well keep that in mind
there is no way that tariq would call diana a family .. its defintely tommy
@@baogxchaos2160bro that was the mother of his child even Monet looked at tyraiq like a son on the low they definitely always will be family
@@Jigaboo1929 lol he never called here family in a show , but u are trying to make it as he did .. only family for him is Tommy ..
@@Jigaboo1929 interesting take. I never saw it that way, I thought she always liked Tariq because she saw Lorenzo in him from their younger years. Monet also help Lorenzo get the edge he needed to get where he was. Like Tasha helped Ghost. I feel like that's why Tariq respected Monet because she was savvy like Tasha when it came to the game.
This is far from over between Tariq & Brayden regarding the resentment Brayden feels being demoted. Especially how Brayden saved Tariq’s life at the end of season 3 and lost his family…. I could imagine how Brayden feels and he damn sure won’t forget. The way Brayden walked down those steps during his last scene was very cold…. Just wait….
It was ironic that Diana checked Tariq about the death of Monet when Diana used Tariq to take out Monet.
NOOOOOO TF HE HASNT………he will never be GH0ST. Damn this dude can’t even get his own nickname. Tariq is Tariq and Gh0st is Gh0st.
I just need to Tariq to Truly understand his father, and to stop disrespecting him at any given point. For me, that's one huge roadblock that's stopping him from becoming Ghost.
Tariq always said he’s not like his dad. Ghost did not even teach Tariq the game. I don’t know why people want him to be like or better than Ghost. But he’ll settle for the name Lil Ghost 😂
The name Zion gave him 😂
Ghost spent 30 years in the game while Tariq spent 5 please people be very logical with your answers😂
Imagine Tariq at 40 years old. Man!
@@lucyday007at the way he’s going he ain’t gone make it to 40 😂
Kanan said tariq is smarter than ghost as a kid 😂 i'm sure he'll getting smarter as he ages 😂
@@b3to653 Clearly Kanan is/was wrong. Always fear a man who’s a pro in a profession where men die young. That’s exactly what Ghost is
@@Deefce4 you right... ghost is smart that's why he still breathing and tariq isn't 🥱🥱🥱
Not after the way Zion whooped his and lil Tommy Ass! 😂😂😂
Man Tariq got thrown through a wall that told me everything I needed to know about him 😂😂😂😂
But who's dead...
Ghost was successful cause nobody knew James St Patrick was Ghost. Tariq been on FBIs radar since he started in the game (mainly due to him & parents actions). So nah, he didnt earn it.
Traiq went out like a punk!
We are comparing a 20 year old Tariq to a 40 year old battle tested Ghost… we don’t know what trials and tribulations Ghost went through in his early stages of the game
When They keep Pushing The 20 yr Old Up On The 40 Yr Old Pedestal, Is Even Crazier...
Ghost still probably smarter and better than Tariq at his age it don't matter how the show started Tariq would not make it to 40 getting beat up and extorted every season
@@Exotic_Lettuce100.
@monaemoments Tariq show was more about the TEJADAS then him kane definitely had better character development than Tariq
ghost was a corner boy working for kanan & breeze at Tariq’s age they aren’t the same person respectfully Riq more ruthless then ghost at that offed dat man in the middle of his club then put on a lil scene moments after to alibi himself he was on dawg shit
No but i was happy hearing when he said "like a ghost"
Tariq James St Patrick, Class of 2024. I would be surprised if the final episode would be Tariq graduating, considering he didn’t do a lick of homework since Season One 😂
he did 4 years of homework in season one 😂😂😂😂
He gotta get hands first
In my opinion Tariq's mind is what makes him "Ghost" like. He doesnt have the physicality of Ghost but uses his mind brilliantly. He's not afraid to kill and use whoever to get his way. He also has a control issue, like his father not sure if thats good or bad yet. Finally Tariq choosing to be in the game fully, no family, no ties, no emotional connections is what might save him one day...if no one finds out about Tasha and company. My verdict has to do more to earn the name and Tommy has to bestow it upon him.
They missed an opportunity for Cane to teach Tariq how to fight.
I can agree with that, and when Tommy Egan helps him and teaches him how to fight he’ll give him that but everything else he has
Tariq hasn't earned that name yet. Not by a long shot. He has a way to go it's just the beginning love the video Movie Bot stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Tariq cannot shine Ghost’s shoes because he’s too sloppy and arrogant 😂😂😂😂😂
He can never be Ghost. Ghost was super smart and polished. No one could get to him, Tariq just caught him slipping. Tariq got played and ran over his whole series and always needed help. He can be little Tasha green. He’s green like his mom and the name.
Great analysis! You really earned my admiration and respect on how you put it together!
Just pay Omari, and we'll have Ghost
No he didn't earn it at all, no one knew who James st Patrick really was, his crimes his alter ego Ghost except a handful of people, Tariq is almost always in the lime light for bad reasons
Ghost use to run from cops too kanan said that in the old power so cops know Dem but maybe never know them by there name
Tariq avoided having attachments in the game because Tariq didn't wanna lose focus on the game just like Lobos was telling Ghost about Tommy. Milan tried to tell Tommy this.
Tariq had too many connections… bitches was one of em 😂
No cane should be called ghost. He the one nore like ghost. Cane should have his own show!
Can’t compare them unless we knew what ghost was doing at 20 and not at 40. Tariq looking like he bout to be running NY at 20 def a clear jump on ghost at that age. Comparing 40 year old to 20 year old doesn’t make sense though.
no tariq is bait but ghost was literally a ghost
Yeah i totally agree Tommy should be Tariq’s final mentor and Tommy is the best person to determine whether Tariq is worthy of his father’s name Ghost 💯💯
No. He’s too close to the issue at hand. He knows he killed ghost fr. He wouldn’t trust Tariq the same anymore
Not even close!
The question of Tariq being Ghost?
Imitation is the highest form of flattery. Enuff said
It's quite disrespectful to Ghost to think Tariq is anywhere near close to him.
Tariq being called new ghost is like bronny James being called the next LeBron
This guy’s series was stolen from him by the Tejada’s particularly Cane.
Tariq is the definition of not knowing what to do with your life. One minute he says he wants out the game, the next he is talking about being an apex predator 😹😹. Wtf was wrong with the writers. That’s why I love Raising Kanan. The writers there seem to know what they are doing with the show, no contradictions.
I Agree with you
Even the actor himself said the same thing tariq Is so indecisive
We don't need TARIQ to be Ghost, we need GHOST to be Ghost!
I can't take him seriously when he looks about 12 years old
Tariq is a corn flakes 😂😂 that mf ain’t nowhere near Ghost/James St Patrick ….for seasons straight that mf getting his ass choked out, tricked by fools and getting extorted 😂 plus he got Brayden and Diana to get him implicated in murders 😂😂
I think Tariq has finally reached the point he needed to feel like ghost. But to be exactly like ghost, I think his journey finally starts now. He still has a lot more to do before he’s worthy of the name. So far like ghost, Tariq has a pretty nice team. Has someone in law enforcement and influence. Niko and Tate. His business trio, Brayden, him and Effie. A Joe proctor.. Davis. Has spies. Pinky. All he needs is muscle. He’s getting there but not yet.
HELL NAW!!!! (but we never saw a 20 year old Ghost, so im sure these things take time. )
Might be but ghost got that nickname from kanan when he was a teenager bro 😂 ghost was in the game at age 20
@@gregviewshe got his name from breeze
@@shaawoomusic nah kanan and breeze named him ghost when riq is walking with kanan he clearly says ya father always knew how to dissappear thats why we called him ghost
@@shaawoomusic no criminal record, no crimes committed , no pics online... just like a ghost
@bruhhh_4203 what are you talking about a 20 year old ghost was working under Kanan and Tariq is 23 and has NYC on Lock and cops working for him and he's not distracted like Ghost was lol yall salty
I’m so happy this show is off the air. They lost me at the end, I know it’s fictional but wow. Diane went from being a college kid to being a sharp shooter from 20 yards shooter smh
Big difference between ghost having to hustle until he made it and Tariq being born with a silver spoon and having a trust fund. He had his chance to make it big legally and turned his back.
POWER: Origin's & influence should run like Godfather 2, showing the rise of Ghost & Tommy & the progress of tariq
He needs to have hands before he even gets that name
He needs to have a lot of things before he get that name.
This dude ran to his mother every minute and they asking if he earned the name ghost foh
The show over with LET IT GO like keyshia cole
@moviebot remember Mecca told Tariq a Story about where he and Ghost was trained.
No, Tariq is nowhere near Ghost level yet. If anyone deserves that title, it would be Cane!!!
Cane is and has always been a beast!!! A force to be reckoned with!! He is a bit of a hot 🔥 head, which makes him dangerous!!! He puts in that work by any means necessary!!!!
That fighting scene in the ring with Zion showed how strong and powerful Cane really is!! Zion had to resort to using brass knuckles because he knew he wouldn't be able to defeat him. This speaks volumes because Zion was a beast himself!!!
I liked how Cane defended his mom towards the end, but I was shocked that he was caught slipping with Noma, not knowing what her intentions were for Monet. I think his plan was to eventually get Noma for all her dough and get rid of her. But it didn't quite play out like that!
In the end, Cane went out like a "G" by escaping the police after being shot several times and killing Noma!! Now that's what I call "Ghost" status!!
I can't agree more with your breakdown!
No. Also Dude Has Had Less Character Development Than Cane And Dianna 💯
hey @MOVIEBOT I know you keep mentioning topics that are left unfinished, so I think this is the ideal moment to put everything in one video
Oooo Hell Noooo‼️‼️ I can’t stand him‼️‼️…
What is the name of the song playing at the end of episode ten, during the conversation with Tariq and Chinedu?
Movie Bot the GOAT !!! Tariq hasn't earned shit yet .. street names are given from others not by yourself .. Tommy is the only one who has that right to call him that ..
Hell no! He didn't even deserve that last name St.Patrick
No not at all
He hadn’t earned his father name, but he is on his way if he can keep the power in New York.
The only real threat to him now would be the Italians and Elisa Marie. Tommy being his final mentor would be the cherry on top cause in my eyes he is the game and Tommy would have him tap into all of his mentors when it’s all said and done. Tommy will never fully trust Tariq due to him taking out & Kanan so he will keep him close but keep him distant as well.
Tariq Tasha green Jr is the name
Yes, this was always gonna be a development series, he is ready for that next chapter
He looks like a kid playing drug dealer.
Why do you people love ghost 👻 so much he was not all that he made plenty of mistakes he wanted his son to turn himself in for killing Ray Ray and he killed countless people the way he treated Tasha truth be told ghost 👻 was the biggest hipacrite in power universe get off this ghost 👻 shit he gone and he aint coming back Tariq is ghost reincarnated face it he's just young
@@LarryPlayer-sz1uzwe love him because no matter what he was doing he never told or did wrong by his kids tyraiq was just brainwashed though kenan
He does he always look fragile 😂
@@LarryPlayer-sz1uz Of course he wasn’t perfect, especially near the end of the show. But he was suave and smart.
@@maggicurry-williams8440 Tariq is better than ghost 👻 and smarter ghost 👻 turned on them ln the end he was dark and evil glad riq killed his evil ass
Tariq isn’t even 10% of Ghost with his scary behind. Cane almost beat him to death in Davis McClain office that time.
No he didn’t earn the name ghost, Kane did.
My son inherited my old xbox account and not after too long, he changed the name. However, to my surprise, he called me one day and asked if he could change it back to my old name. He let me know how much he liked it and thought it was cool, and I realized at that moment how my boy wanted to be like his old man and fit into my shoes. not even just in the world of gaming, but most aspects of life, how our kids look up to us. they really do inherit our skills, hobbies, and even personality for better or worse.
Absolutely not he didn’t earn it!! At all. His storyline in reality never made sense tbh.
I read a comment that said the series mostly centered around the Tejadas and I agree. They made the show mostly about the Tejadas and threw Tariq in there to help with ratings
@@CircumstancesNeverMatter absolutely agree with you 💯
I say this I’m very excited for the next chapter of ghost. The writers will have some time to really map out the season. No more writers strikes etc. I think it’s gonna be interesting to see this next season. One last thing 😂 YALL this show way too serious 💀
He’s getting there for sure shit ghost never had a lawyer and police in his pocket at the same time lol
He had angela and proctor who is waaay better than davis 😂😂 wth smh 🤦🏻♂️ dont start that ish
@@curtissimmons2287 nah man Angela was half way in lmao and idk about waaaay better than Davis my boy caught a body behind his client
@@curtissimmons2287Davis a straight G he’s 10 times the lawyer proctor and Angela were combined
Lol
@@MDNGHTOBSno😂
While he is the top dog, his only downside is he still needs to take some boxing lessons I’m hoping while he’s in Chicago for a brief stent with Braden he takes some boxing lessons. And no, he’s nowhere near his father‘s level so his nickname is Casper Junior.
What if ghost actually taught Tariq? An alternate history timeline series would be fun.
I like your idea of Tommy giving Tariq the name Ghost. He should be the one worthy to give him the name not anyone else besides Ghost himself or Tasha
He's better than ghosts at the same age, though. Did ghost control New york at the same age?
Tyriq has the mind of Ghost, but the actions and personality of Kanan. I'm yet to see any of Tommy in the character of Tyriq, but I agree Tommy is the only one who can stamp Tyriq with the name of Ghost.
Hell naww; I’m waiting on the moment when Tommy put us ass in check for even thinking he’s ghost.
Well Diana was staying with salims family, and salim told them about her needing to stay with them. So naturally if salims family comes to check on him and finds him dead, they'd have to point the finger at Diana because they have proof of her running to them Before salim was killed. Or maybe they'll just ignore that in the writers room. Who knows
She didn’t meet Salim family. Unless I’m missing something.
@@truetomyself8880 salim told his family that Diana would be staying in one of their homes. Right after that salim got offed.
I think ppl forget when we mate ghost he was old and had time to improve himself and his thought process. The end of season 4 was Tariq stepping into the shoes of ghost and so he is developing becoming better... ppl forget Tariq is a teenager and has so much room to grow... once power origin starts we will see ghost learn the game and become ghost... just as Tariq is learning... so ppl need to remember that
I agree with you the quick answer is Absolutely not. I don’t know how he’s on top of the drug game in NYC. Noma wasn’t on top she was finding her network. He’s simply expanded his network and took over Noma’s spot. He doesn’t have a legit business unless he was able to acquire Noma’s Jet company. Don’t get me wrong Noma/Mecca weren’t insignificant in the Game but they weren’t at the top when we truly examine the landscape and context.
An educated, private-pay, Ivy-leaguer will never compare to his “up-by-the-bootstraps” father…even if his father further poisoned the community in the name of getting ahead. Forgive my run-on, yet properly punctuated, sentence.
I think the next spinoff should stop compating Tariq to Ghost. Coz he's not Ghost, but he is Riq. He is different, and sone would say in a better way than Ghost
Sometimes you have to turn someone in to get them outta the away. Ghost taught Tasha that.
We didn’t see Ghost becoming Ghost in his early years. I think we gotta cut Tariq some slack! Tariq is actually on his way…he’s still learning and understanding himself.
