Looking at my rollie it’s about that time! Starz has released the teaser for the highly anticipated second season of its hit drama series, “Power Book III: Raising Kanan.”
Set in South Jamaica, Queens, in 1991, “Raising Kanan” is a prequel to the original “Power” franchise.
It is a sprawling family drama that revolves around the coming of age of Kanan Stark; Ghost and Tommy’s mentor, partner, and adversary, who ultimately dies in a hail of gunfire in the eighth episode of Power’s penultimate season.
In Season 2, Raquel ‘Raq’ Thomas has gained control over the city’s drug trade, but her son is slipping away.
Kanan Stark returns to Queens uncertain of his future with the family business, and because of Detective Howard’s lingering secret, he’s even more uncertain of his past.
Kanan searches for the truth while Raq boldly expands the business into hostile Mafia territory.
Lou-Lou has other plans that revolve around his emerging record label, but Raq isn’t about to let his side hustle get in the way of her expansion.
Although Marvin remains Raq’s loyal soldier, he struggles to earn Jukebox’s forgiveness and become the father she deserves.
The ties that bind this family are becoming undone, but Raq will stop at nothing to hold them together.
The series stars Malcolm M. Mays, Mekai Curtis, Omar Epps, Hailey Kilgore, and Patina Miller
