So are the football and baseball leagues here. I’d rather just see men doing something productive. But don’t knock the “other sports” they have molded many men.
Everyone keeps asking me why I want to work with
@LenaWaithe
so bad.
Well, she highlights CHICAGO in the best light possible. She gives new opportunities to those seeking it. She makes sure that diversity, compassion, and love is everywhere she is.
Why not work with her?!?

I wish y’all would stop with telling us what the “law” says. That shit went out the window hundreds of years ago. Fuck a law. If they cared they would’ve kept the dog. I’m not worried about the consequences of doing what’s right. Now carry on and

Thank you for tonight
@ava

None of you have to like
@KevinHart4real
stand up. Maybe it just wasn’t meant for your particular audience or your personal preference of comedy.
You did great bro. To be locked down all year and produce this gold is what being a creative is all about. Salute ✊🏾

was working with so many ppl we grew up with and us getting to shine together for Chicago in a joyous manner. I been getting the best texts from ppl i haven’t seen in years saying they saw so n so in the movie. We deserve this. 😭😢

Actually there are more viewers than you think. And it’s all about target audience. Blacks ain’t the only ones. True storytelling isn’t about meeting anyone’s “demands”. It’s telling your truths and being okay with it despite what people think. What you eat don’t make me shit
my social media family ain’t happy with me. But I haven’t spoiled anything y’all! 🤣
Raising Kanan comes on Fridays at Midnight. MIDNIGHT! Sorry if y’all wait until Friday night. But the true Power fans catch it the moment it drops. We always have 🤣🙏🏾🤷🏾♂️
Soooo....tonight is the third episode and you still haven’t seen

Whoa. Throwback. Beginning of 2020.
@JosephSikora4
and
@debimazar
were in Chicago. We were viewing Power 613 if I’m not mistaken. Anyways, I was right there, full notebook and pen holding tight to every word they said that night. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
@JosephSikora4
said I had the power to get it done. Well.....see y’all next Saturday! 🔥💪🏾 calling all Chicago artist!! Come check us out on clubhouse and get the scoop on how to get started in the industry, package prep, and who to know in Chicago! See you soon!
I could sense the pain in Famous eyes. The greatest moment for him flipped quickly. To be embarrassed like that by Ronnie…sheesh. When Kanan told him where the family would be you could tell he didn’t care anymore. His best friend…was gone.

False. If you are invited to many of them you don’t have to pay. So for some of those individuals that don’t have to pay and then turn around and have to pay for gymnastics....make it make sense in THEIR world. You know, the players. Not just yours
By far one of my favorite moments.
I literally left class to rush over to the AMC downtown. This was the Marshall premiere at Chicago International Film Festival. I was told do NOT ask for a photo from him. But you only miss the chances you don’t take. ✊🏾

A few things I learned this week...Papa is a great ass dancer, Brandon is trying to keep it together, Kevin will be traumatized for a while (but what kid in this city isn’t), and Ronnie’s grandmama is a true OG.

And that’s just it bro. We were exposed to football and basketball. Not once did anyone in my house change to gymnastics. But then, you know upbringing is also for some reason considered an excuse on our ends. Idk. Maybe I’m just not understanding from a woman’s POV

That’s a great question. It depends on the lens you’re viewing it from. To us, probably not. Lol. However, just the work itself inspires and motivates someone. Some will agree, some dont. And that’s fine.....
10 years of excellence.
10 years of incredible storytelling, cinematography and writing.
10 years of having us all glued to the tv.
Today definitely feels like a celebration for all of us! We, the fans, thank you all!

A few of many questions that
@russellhornsby
asked us as artists. I am truly blown away by the film The Hate U Give and the many messages and themes mentioned. please go support.
I hope that a Power video game is in the works. Where you can play as different characters with different story lines. Or bring back Bulletproof remastered
Honored to say I’m apart of a project

Hold tight to your dreams y’all. It will pay off. In the words of
@KevinHart4real
everybody wants to be famous but nobody wants to do the work.
So do the work. Just. Do. It.
This married couple the other day recognized me and asked for a photo. I said yes. they pulled me aside and said they thought I was going to be mean “like other celebs.”
Well for one…not a celeb. I’m Batman. 2, nothings possible without y’all so it’s the least I can do. 🙏🏾
Can we get a count of how many times we hear “F Raq” in Raising Kanan?
I feel like every character has said it at least 5 times a piece over the seasons. Minus Kanan. He says it every episode 🤣
I hear a lot from Gianni and Mike how family oriented it is on their set.
Honestly I have never been on a set where it felt like home before. Like everyone gets along. Until Force
It’s a powerful thing. It makes work fun and collaboration thrilling. ✊🏾
We are BLACK MEN!..... We build .... We don't tear down other BLACK MEN! .... We have felt the pain of being torn down and we have decided we will be deliberate about building others!

OG Power Ep. 204
Tommy, Kanan and Dre are with everyone having din din. Tommy going in on the ribs and one of the dudes says some out of pocket ish. Kanan looked at him the way Ronnie looked at that bouncer in RK Ep. 302
Crazy. I saw the same gears turning
