I peeped the Raising Kanan trailer and something caught my eye and made me roll my eyes.


Does every black mother in this universe have to be their sons "partner in crime"?


Tasha/Tariq

Monet/Cane

Now Kanan and his mom

Sadly, it’s not uncommon for single black mothers to sell drugs in the inner city. Tasha is an exception. She was an intelligent woman who had an accounting degree, but she chose to marry a drug dealer because she loved the lifestyle and power that came with it.

Fofty just wanted to recreate his ideal of him and his mama Sabrina. He's very obviously never gotten over her death due to his age. I dont know if he's ever had counseling but he's going to keep acting out and creating versions of his fictionalized trauma ideal in his projects until he can accept that she's gone and not coming back.

I just think she simply loved Ghost. Ghost was merely a corner boy when they met and married. It wasn't until they set up Kanan and too over his organization the money started coming in. They were not rich initially.

But Power creator Courtney Kemp has a romanticized look at the drug world. Next to The Wire and even Snowfall, Power is highly unrealistic. She has said Monet is the women she always wanted to be

Courtney already proved to me she got a few screws loose just like fofty
