Joey Bada$$'s "Raising Kanan" Character Departs From The Show, Says Goodbye To Crew

One of the most popular shows within the hip-hop community is Power. That is the longstanding show run by New York rap legend, 50 Cent. Recently, the spin-off Power Book III: Raising Kanan, has been getting new episodes. Unfortunately, fans of the program will surely be let down after seeing that a fan-favorite character did not make it. That would be Kadeem "Unique" Mathis, played by another New York great, Joey Bada$$.

His acting was a bright spot while he was on screen from seasons one, two, and three. But, that run has come to an end for Joey. According to HipHopDX, Joey had a chat with PEOPLE about the way things played out for his character. "I think a lot of people are going to be a little letdown. It's like, ‘What the f***? He's dead?' It is not even the end of the season! It’s the f*****g middle of the season!"
