Summer Slack Streaming - BMF - Season Two

BMF (Black Mafia Family) was one of my New Years/Holiday binges. The first eight episodes were an easy AF watch. These aired back in 2021. So Starz held the second season for a minute. It commenced on January 6, 2023, the same month the real life drug/gang drama was renewed for a third season.

Watching the series week to week was a little different to a straight up eight episode binge.

I think I enjoyed season one a little more than season two. However it is still a fairly good watch. Following BMF, Power Book II: Ghost (slightly similar, drugs, guns, gangs, badass crews) commences on Friday on Stan.

Stan is lucky to have this deal with Starz as the content just keeps coming from the Power franchise.

BMF is another title from 50 Cent/ G-Unit Films and Television Inc. Joining Power and the recently cancelled For Life. 50 Cent is onto a good thing now his music career is slowing down.

He does use his music connections to bring some BIG stars to BMF. Including, wait for it, Snoop Dogg as Pastor Swift. Yes recent visitor to Australia Snoop as a religious figure LOL.

Kash Doll as Monique, Lil Zane as Sockie along with Empire star, Serayah as Lori Walker.

Also joining season two's ever growing cast La La Anthony, while Kelly Hu, Christine Horn and Leslie Jones joined the cast in a recurring role for the second season.

More musicians to come in season three, with 2 Chainz and Ne-Yo being cast in recurring capacities.

So keep an eye out for a third season of BMF on Stan. However for now from Starz I'm still waiting on the return of Hightown (last seen Dec 2021), Heels (last seen Oct 2021), Run the World which returns in May along with the acquired second season of Minx. Season one of Minx currently also on Stan. HBO Max cancelled the already filmed second season. Thank god Starz are bringing it to our screens. Up next You season four, Pt. II.
