“This explosive season of ‘Ghost’ is a fitting crescendo in a decade of an immensely popular franchise – fans will not be disappointed,” said Kathryn Busby, President of Programming for STARZ. “While this marks the conclusion of one chapter, our commitment to the Power universe endures with more compelling storytelling on the horizon.”

Season four of “Power Book II: Ghost” cast includes Michael Rainey Jr. as “Tariq St. Patrick,”** Mary J. Blige **as “Monet Tejada,” *Cliff “Method Man” Smith* as “Davis MacLean,” Gianni Paolo as “Brayden Weston,” Woody McClain as “Cane Tejada,” Lovell Adams-Gray as “Dru Tejada,” LaToya Tonodeo as “Diana Tejada,” **Alix Lapri **as “Effie Morales,” Larenz Tate as “Rashad Tate,” Caroline Chikezie as “Noma,” Lightskinkeisha as “Brushaundria Carmichael” and Michael Ealy as “Detective Don Carter.”
“Power Book II: Ghost” is the first series in the expanded “Power” Universe franchise. Brett Mahoney (“Empire,” “The Following”) serves as showrunner and executive producer for season four. The “Power” Universe series is executive produced by the creator and showrunner of the original “Power,” Courtney A. Kemp through her production company End of Episode, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson through G-Unit Film and Television, and Mark Canton through Canton Entertainment. Lionsgate Television produces the series for STARZ.

ABOUT “POWER BOOK II: GHOST” SEASON FOUR In light of Season Three’s explosive finale, it’s Tariq St. Patrick and Brayden Weston against the world. With new alliances formed in each faction, Tariq and Brayden must find a way back into the game — and a way to insulate themselves from ever being put in the same situation again. But when Brayden starts flirting with a new, reckless lifestyle, Tariq wonders if there really is room for two at the top.

Monet may have finally met her maker, but she has no idea who’s behind it. Davis, suspended and pending disbarment in the wake of his brother’s death, fully embraces the criminal side of his enterprise and finds himself working for both sides — his loyalty dependent on whichever will benefit him most. Faced with the reality that life can end in just a few ways, Effie buckles down on getting out and securing a legit future at Stanford.
After last season’s betrayal, Diana and Dru question their roles in the game and the family business, while Cane sees an opportunity to level up when he starts working for Noma. As Noma fights to establish her business in the States, she also tries to keep a close eye on her bratty daughter, Anya, who is now on Tariq and Brayden’s radar. With the fate of his future in the game and his family at the forefront, Tariq must reconcile his past to rise to the top of the food chain and become who he needs to be to protect those he loves most.

ATLAS

Atlas Shepherd (Jennifer Lopez), a brilliant but misanthropic data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence, joins a mission to capture a renegade robot with whom she shares a mysterious past. But when plans go awry, her only hope of saving the future of humanity from AI is to trust it.

In last year’s The Mother, Jennifer Lopez fought her demons deep in the Alaskan wilderness. Now, she’s launching into orbit to face her foe. In her new film Atlas, the multi-hyphenate performer plays the titular character, a government analyst who’s hurled to a distant world on a quest to defeat her oldest enemy: the robot warrior who upended her life.

“Atlas is someone who has basically shut out the world around her,” Lopez told Netflix. “She doesn’t trust anybody and doesn’t want anything to do with AI.” Unfortunately, on her mission in the far reaches of space, Atlas won’t have much of a choice — stranded in a high-powered armor suit, she’s forced to confront her fear of technology by allying herself with it. Set in a high-tech world, Atlas is a galaxy-spanning adventure written by Leo Sardarian and Aron Eli Coleite and directed by Brad Peyton, who previously helmed San Andreas and Rampage.

Read on for more information about Atlas’ desperate mission, now streaming on Netflix.

What is Atlas about?

Atlas Shepherd (Lopez), a brilliant but misanthropic data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence, joins a mission to capture a renegade robot with whom she shares a mysterious past. But when plans go awry, her only hope of saving the future of humanity from AI is to trust it.

“The heart of Atlas is really about trust and how difficult it is to trust people,” Peyton told Netflix. “Atlas is told through the lens of a woman who’s learning to trust after undergoing a trauma that’s upended her life. It’s a reminder of how we have to have deep, meaningful relationships in our lives, in one way, shape, or form. That you can’t do everything by yourself; you have to choose to trust people at a certain point and let them in.”

For Lopez, the film’s story is as simple as they come. “I loved that this is a big sci-fi action movie, but at its core, it’s a story of friendship — and a love story, in a way,” she said. “I always see everything as a love story, but this is a different kind of love between two beings who connect in disastrous circumstances, and teach each other how to be more human.”

Ghostface 2024 Projects by Lamar Stephens (2024)

It is no secret that Ghost is definitely high up on the greatest Emcees of all time list, but I’m still pounding my head about where I will vote to place him. Our video show outlet (RETV) along with the great Ralph Mcdaniels of Video Music Box, was the first to play their music video for the ground breaking Classic Wu Tang song – “ Protect Your Neck.”

The Single was sent to me from Loud Records and quickly became permanently lodged in my car’s cd player. Ghostface’s performance on that record stood out but we had no idea of what was to come for the Staten Island Thoroughbred.

Then BOOM! the discography. Hit after hit, verse after verse his status quickly rose to Hall of Fame levels. The multi platinum album streak started on 1996 with the flawless “Ironman.” The album featured mind-blowing compositions such as “All That I Got Is You” Released: September 22, 1996″ Daytona 500″ featuring the legendary pioneer group Force MDs, Raekwon, and Cappadonna Released: October 7, 1996 “Motherless Child” Released: October 29, 1996 to name a few.

Since that historic Release Ghostface has been both lyrically and musically consistent with each and every one of his releases.

Now in 2024 Ghostface returns with two projects! His new album “Set the Tone,” and his new memoir “Rise of a Killah” (St. Martin’s Press).

Run and check the legend’s new work! Same consistency brand new styles and flows. The collaborations are top notch as well – Jim Jones, Sheek Louch, Method Man, Raekwon, Nas, Kanye West and more.

You can stream the music on YouTube but definitely purchase his Album through Massappeal Records (support the Hall of Famer!)

and purchase his Album (support the Hall of Famer!)

Below is more info on his amazing new book. It’s time to celebrate this gifted artist who has dominated Hip Hop and modern culture.

“Rise of a Killah” (St. Martin’s Press)

GHOSTFACE KILLAH is a founding member of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan. Their breakthrough debut Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) forever changed the rap genre, and was followed by the epic Wu-Tang Forever, just to name a few. Ghost’s solo career gave birth to classics like Ironman and Supreme Clientele. Born Dennis Coles, the rapper took the name “Ghostface Killah” from a character in the 1979 kung fu film The Mystery of Chess Boxing. He lives in Staten Island, New York.

The story of the celebrated rapper and the iconic Wu-Tang Clan, told by one of its founding members

Dennis Coles—aka Ghostface Killah—is a co-founder of the Wu-Tang Clan, a legendary hip hop group who established themselves by breaking all the rules, taking their music to the streets during hip hop’s golden era on a decade-long wave of releasing anthem after classic anthem, and serving as the foundation of modern hip hop. An all-star cast who formed like Voltron to establish the pillars that serve as the foundation of modern hip hop and released seminal albums that have stood the test of time.

Rise of a Killah is Ghost’s autobiography, focusing on the people, places and events that mean the most to him as he enters his fourth decade writing and performing. It’s a beautiful and intense book, going back to the creative ferment that led to Ghost’s first handwritten rhymes.

Dive into Ghost’s defining personal moments, his battles with his personal demons, his journey to Africa, his religious viewpoints, his childhood in Staten Island, and his commitment to his family (including his two brothers with muscular dystrophy), from the Clan’s early successes to the pinnacle of Ghost’s career touring and spreading his wings as a solo artist, fashion icon, and trendsetter.

Exclusive photos and memorabilia, as well as graphic art commissioned for this book, make Rise of a Killah both a memoir and a unique visual record, a “real feel” narrative of Ghost’s life as he sees it, a one of a kind holy grail for Wu-Tang and Ghost fans alike.

Good Times Returns to Apartment 17C in Animated Reboot That ‘Pushes Boundaries’

When you’re looking back 10 years later, you’ll be like, ‘They said that on Good Times? Oh my gosh.’ ”


By Stephan Lee

March 27, 2024

When Ranada Shepard (Young Love, Diary of a Future President) first got the call to serve as showrunner and executive producer of an animated reboot of Good Times, it didn’t take her long to decide she was interested. The original Good Times, created by Mike Evans and Eric Montes and executive-produced by the late television legend Norman Lear, made history in the ’70s as television’s first Black two-parent family sitcom.

Shepard told Netflix, “Once Sony said ‘Good Times,’ ‘Norman Lear,’ I said, ‘Say less. I’m there.’”

Good Times, coming to Netflix on April 12, is also executive-produced by Stephen Curry, Lear, and Seth MacFarlane. It’s a spiritual sequel of sorts to the live-action original, centering on the fourth generation of the Evans family living in apartment 17C of a Chicago housing project. Lear, who produced groundbreaking sitcoms The Jeffersons, Maude, Sanford and Son, and All in the Family, made pivotal contributions behind the scenes of the new series and will also make a cameo appearance in the eighth episode — his final role before his death at age 101 in December 2023.

The animated reboot, produced in partnership with Sony Pictures Television Studios, will drop the laugh track and deal with modern-day issues, retaining the feeling of the original Good Times. “It’s about a Black family that comes together, laughs together, and survives the system on the South Side of Chicago,” said Shepard. “What you’ll get from that is a lot of social commentary, a lot of pushing the boundaries, a lot of feel-good television, but also a lot of things that may be in the vein of The Simpsons and South Park and Family Guy. When you’re looking back 10 years later, you’ll be like, ‘They said that on Good Times?’ Oh my gosh.’ ”

Read on for more from Shepard on what you can expect when the Evans family returns to 17C on April 12.

Why is Good Times animated instead of live-action?

“We can play in this world a little bit more,” said Shepard, explaining that animation gave them more creative freedom. “There were cool points in the original series, in the sense that Florida [played by Esther Rolle] would always look to the heavens. She would talk to God about her family, she would talk to God about her problems, and we had an opportunity to actually go up to heaven and see what God thought about the request.” The family dynamic will still be grounded in reality, but animation offered an opportunity to explore more experimental territory, such as an appearance by an animated Elon Musk (voiced by MadTV’s Michael McDonald). “The other thing is, look, you don’t have the original cast, right? We can’t go back into the ’70s,” said Shepard. “So how cool is it that through animation you can re-create that apartment — 17C — and show that this family, three generations later, still lives in 17C?”

Character design was also especially important to Shepard, who worked closely with the animation team. “It was extremely important to me that the skin tones varied,” she said. “One family is just not one shade wiped clean. How do we show this? There were certain subtleties involved, [for example,] of the inside of the palms being lighter than the outside of the hands. That’s what it looks like in real life. Let’s actually play with this and humanize these characters as much as possible.”

Who are the voice actors in the Good Times cast?

“I have a dream voice cast,” said Shepard.
• J.B. Smoove (Curb Your Enthusiasm) and Yvette Nicole Brown (Community) voice the roles of Reggie and Beverly Evans, the heads of the household
• Jay Pharoah (Saturday Night Live, The Blackening) plays their teenage artist son, Junior
• Marsai Martin (Black-ish, Little) plays their activist daughter, Grey
• Slink Johnson (Black Jesus) voices the part of their drug-dealing infant son, Dalvin
• Rashida “Sheedz” Olayiwola (Jury Duty), also a writer on the show, voices the role of Beverly’s enterprising best friend, Lashes by Lisa

How was Norman Lear involved in Good Times?

“Norman was completely supportive of me as a showrunner, a creative, a writer, even as a visionary, to take a piece of material that he had produced prior in his career and watch as I took it to another level and pushed the boundaries,” Shepard said. “He showed up for our meetings, our Zooms, our table reads, and made an impact on how we were able to produce this series.” And of course, Lear also lent his voice to the new series. “It was a really special, sweet moment, to have him in the booth,” Shepard reflected. “He was like, ‘I’m not going to read these words.’ I can imagine [the text] must have been so small, and he’s like, ‘Yeah, just tell me the lines, and I’ll say them back.’ ”
“Rest in peace, Norman Lear,” she said.

What modern issues will be explored in Good Times?

Like the original series, the new Good Times grapples with important topics through the perspective of a Black family living in Chicago. “Each episode actually has a theme to it that can apply to everyone,” said Shepard. Expect to see frank and funny conversations about elections, first periods, poverty, women’s empowerment, coded bias, and technology. As Shepard said, the show is “a universal conversation that we’re able to have with this beautiful family [who] come into your homes. And while we’re having it, we make you laugh and we make you smile.”

When is the Good Times release date?

The show will premiere April 12 on Netflix. “It’s your modern-day family scratching and surviving, trying to figure out how to make it,” Shepard said. “It’s about family coming together, laughing together, dancing together, picking on each other, driving each other crazy, all while surviving.”

BMF Season 3

Black Mafia Family (BMF), returns for a third season and continues the storyline of the inspiring true legends of two brothers Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory (Demetrius Flenory, Jr.) and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory (Da’Vinchi), who rose from the decaying streets of southwest Detroit in the late 80’s and gave birth to one of the most influential crime families in the country known as the, Black Mafia Family.

This season we parachute into the early 90’s with Meech moving to Atlanta where Black excellence ois prominent and Black businesses are thriving. Meech seeks to build upon the BMF empire in the south that he and Terry fostered in Detroit and rise to the top of the Atlanta drug scene. In Atlanta, he meets his new love interest, Angel (Kadianne Whyte), an exotic dancer.

Terry remains in Detroit to take care of the business and his second child with girlfriend Lawanda (Sydney Mitchell), while juggling his ongoing affair with love interest Markisha (La La Anthony). Yet, as Meech expands BMF outside of Detroit and new local competition comes after Terry, both brothers take on enemies more ruthless in their ways than they have ever seen who threaten to destroy the whole empire.

BMF continues to humanize the choices of the brother’s business, and their pursuits of the American Dream. Charles Flenory (Russell Hornsby) and Lucille Flenory (Michole Briana White) return as the patriarchs and matriarchs of the Flenory family, whose marriage remains on the rocks.

Detective Bryant (Steve Harris) and Detective Jin (Kelly Hu) return as partners often on opposite sides of the law who find common ground in their determination to take down BMF.

BMF recurring star, Stacks (2 Chainz), Atlanta born and bred, is introduced as a member of Meech’s new crew, yet he is suspicious of Meech. New recurring/co-stars include Rodney “Greeny” Green (Ne-Yo), a local Atlanta player wo is willing to negotiate with the newly arrived Meech; Payne (Lil Baby), who is one of Stack’s foot soldiers: and “Henri” (Ren King) a Detroit drug kingpin who idetermined to ruin Terry when he reneges on a deal.

THE SPACE RACE

(NATGEO) – February 2024

The Space Race weaves together the stories of Black astronauts seeking to break the bonds of social injustice to reach for the stars, including Guion Bluford, Ed Dwight and Charles Bolden, among many others.

In THE SPACE RACE, directors Diego Hurtado de Mendoza and Lisa Cortés profile the pioneering Black pilots, scientists and engineers who joined NASA to serve their country in space, even as their country failed to achieve equality for them back on Earth.

From 1963, when the assassination of JFK thwarted Captain Ed Dwight’s quest to reach the moon, to 2020, when the echoes of the civil unrest sparked by the killing of George Floyd reached the International Space Station, the story of African Americans at NASA is a tale of world events colliding with the aspirations of uncommon men.

The bright dreams of Afrofuturism become reality in THE SPACE RACE, turning science fiction into science fact and forever redefining what “the right stuff” looks like, giving us new heroes to celebrate and a fresh history to explore.

The fourth season of GENIUS will explore the lives, legacies and dueling philosophies of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Under King’s visionary leadership. A frequent critic of King’s civic-minded approach, Malcolm X argued forcefully for Black empowerment, identity and self-determination.
