Aliya Turner and Liv Symone
The Ladies of Butta from “Power Book III: Raising Kanan“, Hailey Kilgore (Jukebox), Aliyah Turner (Krystal), and Liv Symone (Iesha) talk about what’s next for Season 3 with JuicyPop Host Miss J.
SEASON 3 SYNOPSIS
Over the last two seasons of “Raising Kanan,” Kanan Stark has slowly learned the truth about not only his mother, discovering more about himself in the process. It has been a tortuous journey for him and everyone around him. With each new revelation, Kanan has been forced to confront his family’s seemingly never-ending web of secrets and lies. He has spent much of this time in a state of denial, but now, Kanan’s blinders are finally off, and he doesn’t like what he sees. In season three, Kanan finds himself grappling with the very notions of right and wrong. Good and evil. Fidelity and disloyalty. And he’s not alone. Every member of the Thomas family must confront an existential crisis that challenges their very identity. Whether it’s Marvin, who’s still trying to redeem himself, or Raq, who’s finally coming clean, or Lou, who’s wrestling with his own evil, or Jukebox, who’s simply trying to break free from her family’s pathology, they are all attempting to redefine and reinvent themselves. They won’t all be able to complete this intensely personal quest, but for those who do, the destination may reveal the most terrifying secret of all. There is no right and wrong or good and evil. There are no absolutes. In the end, there’s just you.
Hailey Kilgore (Laverne “Jukebox” Thomas)
Quick-witted, fiercely independent, strong. An incredible singer. She hangs with the boys and takes no shit. Jukebox is Marvin’s daughter and Kanan’s cousin. She is Kanan’s closest confidant – they keep each other’s secrets, and always have each other’s backs. Jukebox is determined to forge her own path, scrapping and hustling to make the money to record a demo tape to launch her music career. Jukebox has always known she’s queer (a secret she has shared with Kanan) – but when she falls for a girl from a very different background, she is overwhelmed by the powerful emotions she feels as she embarks on this new relationship – one that would be absolutely forbidden in both their parents’ eyes.
IESHA (Liv Symone) (RECURRING GUEST STAR)– Seventeen- Iesha is sweet and effervescent, the epitome of the girl next door, who sees the best in everyone.
KRYSTAL (Aliyah Turner) (RECURRING GUEST STAR) – Eighteen- A primped and pompous queen bee from the Bronx who will do whatever it takes to steal the spotlight.
