Drake’s Favorite Show ‘Top Boy’ Officially Returns On Netflix This Fall

Although it took years of fan protests and a huge co-sign by supefan Drake, the cult classic UK television series Top Boy is officially being revived by Netflix with a handful of new and returning characters.



The reboot sees British rappers Kano and Ashley “Asher D” Walters reprising their roles as Sully and Dushane, respectively, both back to dominate the underground drug market in London. Two more emcees out of the UK join the cast as well, including Santan Dave (now going simply by Dave) playing the character Modie and rap sensation Little Simz as the beautiful Shelley. The core cast is rounded out by newcomer Jasmine Jobson as Jaq and Micheal Ward as Jamie, the latter a young gang leader that’s looking to make it extra hard for Dushane and Sully to reclaim their street king titles.

No word yet on if Drake will have a guest starring role, but with 10 new episodes scheduled for this season it wouldn’t be surprising at all if he makes a cameo somewhere along the way. Top Boy is created and written by Ronan Bennett, with directors Reinaldo Marcus Green, Nia DaCosta, Aneil Karia and Brady Hood all on board to help bring the story to life once again.

Top Boy‘ returns to Netflix this fall. Take a look at image stills from the upcoming season and character introductions below:

The hit STARZ series Power by 50 Cent and Courtney A. Kemp officially comes to an end this summer, and now we’ve got a first look at how the show’s final season will all play out.



Outside of being advertised as the final showdown, Season 6 will also see the homie Curtis Jackson making his directorial debut following the fate last season of his fan-favorite character Kanan Stark. This time it seems like all family ties, both friendly and those bonded by blood, have been severed beyond repair. The losses seem to be coming from all ends for Ghost (Omari Hardwick): he now finds himself in the middle of a street war with former partner-in-crime Tommy (Joseph Sikora) — his new righthand on the quest for kingpin status now includes girlfriend LaKeisha (La La Anthony) — dealing with the downward spiral of a relationship with both his wife Tasha (Naturi Naughton) and son Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr.) plus trying to piece together a plan that will both honor his deceased daughter and finally give him a clean slate to start fresh on.

Season 6 of ‘Power‘ returns on August 25. Get an early preview of the final season by checking out the trailer above.
