Official Power Book II: Ghost Season 1 Thread

[MikelArteta]

are we even sure these folks are like heavy in the street like that?

their operation seems mad limited, when the two sons have to go around and do pickups. And even hustle some little bodega owner for payment. Their only "inside" is some cop that mary has to spread her legs for. Caine has to do all the dirty work. Even teresi was able to smuggle phones etc. doesn't make you a big-timer in the pen.

I mean look at ghost he had tommy and julio, Big Grim, 2-Bit, dre (for a time), victor etc.

Mary is playing this angry black woman role TOO well. I don't even think she's acting

She miserable AF. These latinos must be giving her horrible platano dikk

 

[HiiiPower]

Niccas get on TheColi just to LIE

maybe the last 3 was a bit strong, but this season is def more interesting than probably the last 2 seasons, the last one for definite

This shouldn’t even be discussed until the season is over, ain’t shyt really happen yet for y’all to be making hot takes like that .

BTW, Season 4 of Power was fire, idk how that can even be mentioned to the first 3 episodes of PowerBook 2

You a special kind of stupid. The bytch he was fukking wasn't even 100% sure he was Ghost..

You're missing the point. If you're from the streets, you know names...whether or not you know what they look like or not. You know names and you know who is connected. It's like anyone in ATL hustlin during that time, but not knowing BMF. At some point, you're going to run into someone that's connected to them, and you'll know where they are in the chain. You may not know every member, but a namedrop will suffice.

Whether or not people knew Jamie was Ghost is irrelevant. Tommy is known in the streets. Ghost is known in the streets. Jamie and Tommy are connected in public, and on paper. You would know the St Patrick's are Tommy's folks...it would be "St Patrick's are Tommy's fam." Most people probably wouldn't even realize Tommy was white...its just the name that matters.

i think bobby brown and the daughter is kanan’s children and the one kid that likes art is the actual only child of Mary J Blige and the hispanic nikka

bobby brown and the daughter clearly have no hispanic traits as opposed to the other son who clearly is half hispanic

it explains why the father wanted him to go press the nikkas who kept being hot on instagram instead of caine

just a thought

 

[8WON6]

This ole Eartha Kitt Catwoman ass lawyer lady be killin me with her accent.

 

[Roid Jones]

That teacher really fukkin chicks in his office at work

 

[theflyest]

Father should be black

heres the deal, everyone on the street level that knows Ghost is James St Patrick are dead with the exception of Tommy, Tasha and 2-bit. On the law enforcement side, it’s Saks and Blanca. The rest of the law enforcement, and Tate want it buried. So unless Tasha, 2-bit or Tariq say something, No one in the street will know who Ghost really was which could leave Tariq taking on the name at the end of the season

Ghost been in operation from 1996 to 2020 but nobody knows him? Just say this sh*t is dumb and keep it moving. You realize this little nikka would’ve been running around Queens with Tommy for two plus decades right So every nikka who came up in Queens at the same time (the Tejadas) should’ve known this nikka. A large amount of them would’ve known he was Breeze and Kanan’s young boy. Ghost said he was a corner boy from his own mouth. So.....he would’ve been outside everyday. You think he was telling other criminals his name was James St. Patrick or Ghost smh? So nikkas would've known his alias and knew his face. He would’ve had beef with a few of them. And everyone would’ve been paying extra attention to him once he replaced Breeze and Kanan went to jail. Sh*t don’t add up. Y’all keep focusing on him when we met him in season one when he was far removed from that but before that this kid would’ve been growing up for years in Queens. EVERYONE would have or should have known him. 50 Cent was a CORNER BOY and was interacting with Supreme. A lot of nikkas in Queens knew Boo Boo. But we supposed to believe a kingpin came up in secret. It’s not believable.

Edit: How did I forget the most obvious part. Ghost was probably the ONLY black drug dealer in Queens with a white boy as a partner. That alone would’ve made him stick out

You have a point. In the real world, you’re right. In the Power world, we just know what the show tells us. Tejadas Were never mentioned in the original show, as far as I know. They could of have been getting supplied by one of the other crews and never dealt with Tommy and Ghost.who knows. Power may explain all this by the end of the season. I think as they show more of Monet’s husband (forgot his name), they may explain how much he knows

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

How is this show brehs? I said I wouldn’t watch the spinoffs but it’s not much on

What you're saying makes no sense. If you don't know James is Ghost then how the fukk would know his son? nikkaz in NYC don't know everyone.. There's over 10m people in the city. My friend has this saying "you can be whoever you want to be out here, so many people you can turn the corner and be a whole new person" i use to pick up dope on 149 & Broadway all i knew was a guy named Macho.. I never actually seen him...He sent his workers to drop off the weight.
