When Does ‘Power Book II: Ghost’ Season 4, Episode 9 Come Out?

'Power Book II: Ghost' 409 Tariq
STARZ

(WARNING: Spoilers for Power Book II: Ghost will be found below.)

The next two episodes of Power Book II: Ghost could be the series’ most dramatic and epic episodes ever. Last week’s episode set the path toward this as we were introduced to Effie’s mom (something that could play a significant role as season four comes to a close). Brayden sought revenge on the drug dealer who nearly killed his girlfriend with fentanyl-laced drugs, though she wasn’t happy with this retaliation. Tariq and Monet attempted to pit Detective Carter and Noma against each other, but they failed. All this occurred as Cane and Noma legally became married and as Dru continues to work for Detective Carter. So what will episode nine bring?

When Does Power Book II: Ghost Season 4, Episode 9 Come Out?

The ninth episode of Power Book II: Ghost season four, titled “Married To The Game,” will arrive on September 27. The episode will be available on Friday, 9/27 on the STARZ app starting at midnight EST/PST. The episode will later air on the STARZ TV channel that same day at 8 pm ET/PT. A synopsis for “Married To The Game” can be found below:

A union that should bring the Tejadas and Noma together, couldn’t appear to be further apart; Tariq and Monet are sent on a seemingly simple mission.

You can also watch a teaser for Power Book II: Ghost season four, episode eight below:

Everything New (And Spooky) On Netflix In October 2024, Including ‘Woman Of The Hour,’ ‘Don’t Move,’ And ‘The Diplomat’

woman of the hour
Netflix

The witching month shall soon descend upon Netflix after Monsters and Emily In Paris got us properly warmed up for chills and spills. Soon, multiple returning hit shows (Outer Banks, The Lincoln Lawyer, The Diplomat, and Unsolved Mysteries) will deliver new seasons, and a pair of distressing movies (Don’t Move and Woman of the Hour) will deliver a themed approach to scares.

Additionally, Yellowjackets and Psycho hit the library for even more terrifying sights and sounds, so lock those doors. For some levity, the The Karate Kid movies will surface while Cobra Kai gears up for more episodes later this fall.

Here’s everything coming to Netflix in October:

Woman of the Hour (Netflix film 10/18)

The above teaser elicits far more spooky feels than the full trailer for Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut. This movie follows her portrayal of 1970s aspiring actress Cheryl Bradshaw, who unfortunately picked serial killer Rodney Alcaca on The Dating Game reality show. It doesn’t take long for her alarm bells to go off and never stop. If you have ever received a recommendation to read The Gift Of Fear by Gavin de Becker, then you will immediately realize what the above scene was meant to do. The film is, of course, dramatized but based on a prolific mass murderer who’s much scarier than vampires and ghosts.

Don’t Move (Netflix film 10/25)

The above theme continues. You surely have heard about “the man or the bear in a forest” question. That’s this movie in a nutshell. Also, Evil Dead creator Sam Raimi produces, so you know this will be sick.

Outer Banks: Season 4 (Netflix series streaming 10/10)

This season takes the Pogues in time after that 18-month leap into the future that came with an eye toward Blackbeard’s treasure. As such, this season follows the El Dorado gold discovery and subsequent attempts for the group to be “normal” and run a tour-based business at their “new safe haven,” which they are calling “Poguelandia 2.0.” Good luck? This season will see them group facing off with dangerous new forces, including a character portrayed by Pollyanna McIntosh of The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live. It’s not quite a Jadis crossover, but it will probably be that unsettling.

The Lincoln Lawyer: Season 3 (Netflix series streaming 10/17)

LA’s most sensational defense attorney will begin a third season based upon Connelly’s fifth The Lincoln Lawyer book, The Gods of Guilt. A crime victim will be somebody that Mickey knows and has previously helped as a client. Of equal (or potentially even greater) interest to viewers is how much of Neve Campbell’s character, Maggie, will be in this season. Sure, this might be due to flashback scenes, but some Neve is better than none.

The Diplomat: Season 2 (Netflix series streaming 10/31)

Netflix already answered a question on viewers minds by confirming that the infuriating Hal Wyler (Rufus Sewell) is still alive. That complicates matters even more for Kate (Keri Russell), and they will display a united front against the onscreen debut of Allison Janey as Vice President Grace Penn while Kate will wrestle with how to prove that Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge (Rory Kinnear) was behind the season finale catastrophe. What does this mean for the Dennison (David Gyasi) situation? Oh, soap operatics are alive and well.

The Weeknd Shared A Teaser Of ‘Timeless,’ His Ominous-Looking Collaboration With Playboi Carti

Spooky season is right around the corner, and it looks like Abel Tesfaye is getting in the mood early. At least, that’s how it appears in the teaser The Weeknd shared from his upcoming Hurry Up, Tomorrow single, “Timeless.” In a tweet, he shared an ominous-looking screenshot from the music video featuring the highly demanded guest star Playboi Carti with both artists draped in their signature black-on-black aesthetics. Carti appears to be wearing a samurai helmet, while Abel himself sticks with his now-familiar shades.

The two artists previously collaborated on the soundtrack from The Weeknd’s much-maligned HBO series, The Idol, teaming up with Madonna on “Popular.” That song, intriguingly enough, also appeared in Fortnite during the game’s Fortnite Festival performance. At the time, Tesfaye said of the collaboration: “I’m proud of it. I’m definitely proud of it. Me and Carti had this… I mean, we’ve jammed out before. We’ve had a different version of this song prior. So I’ve had these vocals for a while, and I’ve kind of just worked around it, and then kind of kept it in the tuck. But now it felt like it was time.”

Whether the vocals for “Timeless” also derived from this jam session is unknown, but they’ve displayed compelling chemistry before, so to see this record also succeed in that respect wouldn’t be a surprise. “Timeless” will be the second single from Hurry Up, Tomorrow after “Dancing In The Flames.”

Will Ferrell Has A Surprising Answer For His Favorite ‘SNL’ Sketch Of All-Time

With the season premiere of SNL‘s 50th season approaching, The Los Angeles Times asked a bunch of famous folks, some involved with the show and some not, to name their favorite sketches of all-time. There was a lot of love for “More Cowbell,” including from “Let It Go” songwriters Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez (“The commitment every single person has to that sketch, except for maybe Jimmy Fallon”) and actor Jude Law. But one of the people who made “More Cowbell” an all-timer had a different answer.

Will Ferrell went with “Fred Garvin: Male Prostitute,” a season 4 sketch starring Dan Aykroyd as, well, a male prostitute named Fred Garvin.

“He was a male prostitute, and he never could get to any [sex acts] because would do these poses, and as he started to undress he had this series of — he had a hernia belt he had to undo. It was so elaborate,” the Will & Harper star said. “This is early days. I’m still so little [when it aired] that I don’t even know [what it’s about], but the way he said it — it was way over my head but so funny at the same time. That’s one that sticks with me to this day.”

You can watch the sketch below.

SNL season 50 premieres this Saturday, September 28, with host Jean Smart and musical guest Jelly Roll. Just imagine Deborah Vance saying “Jelly Roll.” Go on. It’s fun.

50 Cent’s Documentary About Diddy’s Abuse Allegations Has Officially Landed At Netflix

50 cent TOP

Back in May, it was reported that in a “bidding war,” Netflix won the rights to a documentary about Diddy’s abuse allegations, a doc produced by 50 Cent through his G-Unit Film and Television Studios. Now, it’s official, Variety reports.

The publication shared a statement attributed to 50 and director Alexandria Stapleton, which says:

“This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far. We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives. While the allegations are disturbing, we urge all to remember that Sean Combs’ story is not the full story of hip-hop and its culture. We aim to ensure that individual actions do not overshadow the culture’s broader contributions.”

The project is currently in production and does not have an announced release date.

This comes after 50 said in July, “I’m the only one from hip-hop culture that’s produced quality projects. We do have a lot of talent within our culture where the talent has developed a comfortability in front of the camera, so they’re usually a part of it as an actor or driving force of why someone would watch the project; not the behind-the-scenes production, producing the whole project, so there’s a difference.”

When Will ‘Dexter: Original Sin’ And ‘Dexter: Resurrection’ Premiere?

dexter-top.jpg
Showtime

Less than two years ago, Showtime started making post-Dexter: New Blood noises about more spin offs, and they weren’t joking. The people demand more overall satisfying series with Michael C. Hall and ultimately confusing finales, right? I kid, mostly. There is no question about the two existing finales being bizarre, but at this point, that’s part of the franchise’s charm. No hurricane or seemingly-lethal gunshot can keep Dexter Morgan down for good, and you gotta respect his tenacity, but now, we are faced with a question.

When Will Dexter: Original Sin And Dexter: Resurrection Premiere?

The upcoming prequel series starring Michael C. Hall’s narrative voice along with Patrick Gibson, Christian Bale, and Sarah Michelle Gellar will launch on Friday, Dec. 13 for subscribers of Paramount+ With Showtime, and those who prefer to watch linear programming will be waiting until Sunday, Dec. 15.

For the next sequel series, hang tight on that detail. Thus far, Showtime has only revealed that the very onscreen Michael C. Hall will start shuffling those blood slides sometime in 2025 with an eye for a multi-season adventure.

Back in 2021, Hall described how “easy” it was for him to slip back into Dexter’s serial-killing shoes for New Blood. “It’s like discovering this person that you thought you put away, he’s been there all along,” he admitted. “You just turn the cameras back on.” Talk about a really Dark Passenger.

Ben Quad Previews The ‘Ephemera’ EP With The Dynamically Aggressive ‘Your Face As An Effigy’ Video

Ben Quad released one of the best emo albums of 2022. Now they’re back with a new EP that’s inspired by groups like Deafheaven and Underoath. The self-described “post-emo and butt rock” band from Oklahoma is releasing the five-track Ephemera EP on October 25, and the cathartic single “Your Face As An Effigy” is out now.

“Lyrically, this is the most open-ended on the EP,” Ben Quad (named after the legendary podracer) said in a statement about the single. “This song is about finding solidarity within the group you identify with and overcoming the deceivers who seek to ruin you. The music video highlights this concept of solidarity by focusing on the brotherhood aspect of the band. The political undertones of the song title were purposeful in the sense that we wanted to paint a picture of overcoming a system that seeks to destroy us.”

Watch the “Your Face As An Effigy” above and check out the Ephemera tracklist and Ben Quad’s tour dates below.

Indie Mixtape 20: Hinds Will Live Forever On ‘Viva Hinds’

Hinds FEATURED Dario Vazquez
Dario Vazquez

If Viva Hinds proves anything, then it’s that Hinds are here to stay for good. The Spanish duo (né quartet) sound uplifted and triumphant on their fourth studio album. While they’ve lost the two members of their rhythm section, Carlotta Cosials and Ana García Perrote have struck a bond that, from the sound of Viva Hinds alone, refuses to yield.

Across its 10 tracks, the camaraderie between its two members is tactile. Still, they get some help along the way, such as from Beck on the immediately catchy “Boom Boom Back” and from Fontaines D.C.’s Grian Chatten on the new-wavey dream-pop jam “Stranger.”

Following the record’s release in September, Cosials sat down with Uproxx to talk about Twin Peaks, her mother’s spaghetti carbonara, Gwen Stefani, and more in our latest Q&A.

What are four words you would use to describe your music?

D, C, G and A.

It’s 2050 and the world hasn’t ended and people are still listening to your music. How would you like it to be remembered?

As the music people choose when they’re in a house party but rarely played by the DJ in a club.

Who’s the person who has most inspired your work, and why?

I’ve been thinking about Gwen Stefani a lot lately, but I’m not sure if she influences my job. Maybe she does and I’m not that aware. She’s definitely cooler and more clever than me.

Where did you eat the best meal of your life and what was it?

My mom’s spaghetti carbonara no doubt.

Tell us about the best concert you’ve ever attended.

The one Twin Peaks gave in San Francisco from that tour we did together. Or any Twin Peaks show, I think. I still haven’t seen a live band like they were.

What song never fails to make you emotional?

Mazzy Star – “Look On Down From The Bridge”

What’s the last thing you Googled?

I stopped Googling. I’m becoming a ChatGPT nerd; I’m so sorry. The last thing I asked it was to invent a word that I could use in a conversation and the other people think it already exists, and that it’s related to playing music, partying, and some feelings. ChatGPT invented the word “melofrenzy”. We’re working on making it popular.

Where’s the weirdest place you’ve ever crashed while on tour?

We once accidentally stayed at a weirdo’s place. Our tour manager thought he was a friend of ours, and we thought he was a friend of hers. He was awkward the whole night. We didn’t realize until we left the house.

What’s your favorite city in the world to perform and what’s the city you hope to perform in for the first time?

I really wanna play in Seoul, and probably my favorite city to perform at the moment would be Chicago.

What’s one piece of advice you’d go back in time to give to your 18-year-old self?

I was good at 18. but to my 16-year-old self I would say please don’t do the lip-piercing please.

What’s one of your hidden talents?

I’m learning to be a pilot of small planes.

If you had a million dollars to donate to charity, what cause would you support and why?

Education. I’ll try to improve the education system everywhere in the world.

What are your thoughts about AI and the future of music?

I think we’ll have to share the world and live together. It’ll be okay. It doesn’t intimidate me.

You are throwing a music festival. Give us the dream lineup of 5 artists that will perform with you and the location it would be held.

It will be in Portugal and I will have Charley Crockett, The Moldy Peaches, Fontaines D.C., Charli XCX, and Oasis.

Who’s your favorite person to follow on social media?

I love this guy Martijn Doolaard, a YouTuber who builds his own house.

What’s the story behind your first or favorite tattoo?

It’s a matching tattoo with my mom, a heart. I have another one with my brother, a triangle, with my friend Camila: “Madrid en Agosto”, with my friend Maru: “LN9” (referencing “Lucky Number Nine” from Moldy Peaches), with my friend Meji: a scorpion, and with no one but myself: a dragon because we’re living in the year of the dragon. Forgot to mention all of them are on my feet.

What is your pre-show ritual?

Ponytail, brush teeth, jumps, beer, loud music, sing, read the room, hug, stage.

Who was your first celebrity crush?

Mark Lenders, an anime cartoon from Captain Tsubasa.

You have a month off and the resources to take a dream vacation. Where are you going and who is coming with you?

It doesn’t really matter where you go; it’s who you share it with. Guys, it was never the chocolate you know?

What is your biggest fear?

The lack of passion for living, the lack of love, the darkness. I fear that a lot. It makes people hurt people.

Viva Hinds is available now via Lucky Number Music. Find more information here.

Every NBA And WNBA Player With A Signature Sneaker

signiture_sneakers(1024x450)
Getty Image/Merle Cooper

There is no better status symbol in basketball than a brand giving you a signature sneaker. Whether it’s the NBA or WNBA, apparel companies have to make some pretty big decisions by identifying the best athletes on their respective rosters to represent them. There are a number of ways this happens, but the most sacred of them all is a signature sneaker.

Of course, while brands like Nike and adidas have cornered the market on many of the biggest names in the game, plenty of other brands in the U.S. and abroad have placed big bets on NBA and WNBA players. Today, we wanted to look through all the brands that have given out signature sneakers, or have something in the works for players this season.

Nike

Devin Booker
Giannis Antetokounmpo
Ja Morant
Kevin Durant
LeBron James
Sabrina Ionescu
A’ja Wilson (Coming 2025)
Caitlin Clark (Coming 2025)

Nike boasts the biggest roster of players with a signature sneaker, with five NBA stars and soon-to-be three WNBA stars with their own shoe. A’ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark will be the newest additions to the Nike sneaker lineup in 2025, while LeBron James is set to put out a staggering 22nd edition of his signature line. We can also expect a sixth NBA shoe from Nike on the horizon, as Victor Wembanyama is on the roster, and you can probably bet that he will get his own sneaker sooner than later as he continues to ascend to superstardom.

adidas

Anthony Edwards
Damian Lillard
Donovan Mitchell
James Harden
Trae Young

Like Nike, adidas has five NBA stars with their own signature shoe, with veterans like James Harden and Damian Lillard having places on the three stripes roster for a decade. However, the standout of the adidas lineup last year was the debut of the AE1, which was arguably the best hoops shoe period and certainly one of the best debut sneakers we’ve seen in a long time. The challenge for adidas will be following that up, and we also will wait to see when they get back into the WNBA signature game now that Candace Parker is heading up their women’s hoops division.

Jordan

Jayson Tatum
Luka Doncic
Zion Williamson

Jordan Brand has a trio of young NBA stars, as they’ve refreshed their lineup recently after years with the likes of Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook, and Carmelo Anthony as the active faces of the brand. Zion and Luka are launching the fourth shoes in their lines, while Tatum is getting his third this season.

Puma

LaMelo Ball
Scoot Henderson
Breanna Stewart

Puma’s lineup features a pair of young NBA point guards and one of the most accomplished WNBA stars of all time. The Stewie line has been a hit since it dropped, and the LaMelo line came out of the gate hot before cooling off a touch, largely due to Ball being in and out of the lineup the last two years. Puma will hope that LaMelo can recapture his place alongside the top young guards in the NBA with a healthy year, and that Henderson takes a leap on the court to garner some buzz in his second season.

Under Armour/Curry Brand

Stephen Curry
De’Aaron Fox (Coming 2024)

It’s hard to overstate how important Steph Curry has been to Under Armour, but giving him his own brand while still being an active player is a pretty good indicator of what they think of him. In the not-too-distant future, Curry Brand will launch its first signature shoe for someone other than Steph, as Kings guard De’Aaron Fox will debut his new shoe at the start of this season.

New Balance

Kawhi Leonard

New Balance has been steadily building a deep roster across a number of sports, but they’ve also been deliberate about signature shoes with their basketball players. Only Kawhi Leonard has his own sneaker with the brand as they’ve exploded back on the scene in the hoops space, but it’s easy to see how that can change. Tyrese Maxey continues to emerge as a star in Philly, and they just signed the presumptive No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 Draft, Cooper Flagg, to a deal before he plays a year at Duke.

ANTA

Klay Thompson
Kyrie Irving

Of the overseas brands, no one has bigger stars than ANTA, which boasts Klay Thompson and Kyrie Irving on its roster. Thompson has been with ANTA for years, while Irving joined the brand after he was dropped by Nike. Now, those two are teammates in Dallas, giving ANTA a unique foothold in the metroplex.

Li-Ning

CJ McCollum
Jimmy Butler

Chinese brand Li-Ning is best known for Dwyane Wade’s Way of Wade brand, but they also have a pair of current stars signed to signature deals, with Jimmy Butler and CJ McCollum each having their own shoe.

361 Degrees

Aaron Gordon
Spencer Dinwiddie

Aaron Gordon has been with 361 Degrees for years. Dinwiddie has been with the brand for the past two years after leaving the K8IROS brand he created. They’re not the first players to get a signature sneaker from the brand, though, as it is best known to most NBA fans for previously making a Kevin Love sneaker.

Peak

Andrew Wiggins

Peak has had some big names in the past — and still makes shoes under Tony Parker and Lou Williams’ names — but their lone current signature sneaker belongs to Andrew Wiggins.

Rigorer

Austin Reaves

Austin Reaves capitalized on his rise to fame in L.A. with a signature sneaker deal with Chinese brand Rigorer last season.
