‘Power’ Teaser Has Ghost With New Enemies; Returns In July
James ‘Ghost’ St. Patrick (Omari Hardwick) is looking over his shoulder in Season 2, episode 1 ‘Ghost Must Die’.
Fans of the STARZ television show Power have been salivat- ing at the mouth, waiting for show runner, creator and writer Courtney A. Kemp to give them even the smallest morsel of what to expect for season three. Then on April 5, Ms. Kemp kindly obliged.
In a brief 30-second trailer, fans will see Ghost must now look over his shoulder to navi- gate a world where new ene- mies have familiar faces. The teaser doesn’t give too much away because, well it’s a teaser. However, in one of the more chilling moments from the clip, Ghost, feeling somebody star- ring, looks to see his one time friend and brother, Tommy on the opposite side of a street, in- deed symbolism for where their relationship has now taken them.
There isn’t a Kanon sighting in the clip, but as exposed at the end of season two, Special K wasn’t quite out for the count and may prove to be an even bigger problem for Ghost as well. Power returns this July on STARZ.

USA Today cites an an- nouncement from the Atria Publishing Group that reveals the funnyman will publish his memoir, titled “From the Hart” on Father’s Day in 2017.
In a press release, “From the Hart” will examine how Hart has used obstacles and set- backs he’s experienced in life to fuel his drive to succeed. Among those obstacles and set- backs are Hart growing up with an addicted father as well as failing miserably at his first gigs.
Hart’s venture into being an author comes as he remains ac- tive on the scene with recent movies such as “Ride Along 2,

Def Loaf Throws ‘Coming To America’ Themed B-Day Party
The group are just the fifth hip-hop act to be voted into the hall, having been nomi- nated three times previously.
Founding member Ice Cube said the quintet had earned their place, just as the pioneers of jazz, blues, punk, rock and pop before them.
"Rock and roll is not con- forming to the people who came before you, but creating your own path in music and in life," he said.
"We have come a long way from being so hated in the in- dustry to making it to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Are we rock and roll? You're damn right we're rock and roll."
Ice Cube's comments came amid criticism from some rock acts, including Kiss frontman
Gene Simmons, about in- cluding rap artists in the rock hall.
NWA's rise to fame was charted in the 2015 film ‘Straight Outta Compton’, named after one of their best- known songs.
The group caused contro- versy for their often inflamma- tory songs that reflected the violence, crime and anti-police sentiments of their Los Ange- les neighborhood and went on to sell more than 100 million records.
They were inducted at the ceremony by rapper Kendrick Lamar, who said the group had "proved to every kid in the ghetto that you could be successful and still have your voice while doing it".
