It is the continuation and second spin-off to Power. The sitcom received approval for a season 2 before airing in July 2021. Raising Kanan is a 1990s film that follows Kanan Stark (the persona first played by executive producer Curtis “50 Cent”) as he enters the drug business.
Raising Kanan Season 1 Recap
Kanan Stark, 15, tends to cater to his family’s booming drug operation, run by his mother, Raquel Raq Thomas, in South Jamaica, Queens, in 1991. Raq does everything it takes to get the right target off Kan’s back during a member’s competition. Kanan, still injured from a terrible tragedy, tries to get into the drug business with Marvin’s help, while Raq prepares to eliminate his rival.
When a police crackdown finishes off Raq’s rival, all the people die; deals are broken, the truth is revealed, and revenge is set. Raq redesigns its operations when the stashhouse is attacked, looking to increase business; Kanan is imprisoned after a confrontation with Scrappy.
Lou’s new art exhibition becomes the focal point of Raq and Unique’s conflict; Kanan sets up a drug trafficking scheme with Marvin. Right and Marvin’s passive income worsened; Raq wants revenge for the attack on Scrappy; The Jukebox takes a huge hit. After Raq finds out that Kanan is behind a terrible crack in the streets, he suffers. Raq asks Kanan for help, but he can only help after Marvin takes revenge. Raq rushes to get Kanan out of serious trouble as the scenario in the neighborhood worsens.
Raising Kanan Season 2: Release Date
Power Raising Right hasn’t made an official announcement yet, however, depending on the annual period, a summer 2022 release date seems a possible. On July 12, 2021, Raising Kanan was extended for a second season, just over a week before the show’s premiere on July 18, 2021. However, the show did not address Kanan’s involvement in the criminal underworld, and now the premeditated murder by drug dealers has created quite a cliffhanger.
Season | Release Date |
Season 1 | 18th of July 2021 |
Season 2 | TBA |
Raising Kanan Season 2: Expected Plot
The second season of Power Raising Kanan will begin with Kanan trying to kill his father, Detective Malcolm Howard. The juvenile trafficker attacks the officer and leaves him, but we find out at the end of the first season that Malcolm has escaped and is now conscious. Despite the fact that Unique is already imprisoned, his mother, Raquel, wants to frame him for the crime. Will investigators decide to put his son’s safety first?
On the other hand, Kanan takes refuge in Maryland, but he has broad ties with mobs in Southern Jamaica, New York — and he doesn’t know that the cop he killed is his father. Raquel is a tough woman who, after first protecting her from drug traffickers, is caught taking her into the family company. So according to actor Mekai Curtis, future episodes will focus on the actions of others that have consequences, and how these “shape Right and his mind.”
