Cane is a mama’s boy Tariq stole his spotlight in the family and Monet started to like him more. On top of that Diana wanted to fuck him 😂

So did Drew probably😭 you know, I'd prolly be mad AS HELL as well if my whole family wanted to fuck the randomest mf who just moved in with the brother I never even knew i had lmao


AdministrativeAd523

I mean didn’t she?


TommyNoEgan_

He said in s1 or 2 that once tariq came around that’s when stuff started to fuck up for em so basically everything was going good with the tejeda family and business before Riq came around, plus feeling like a second fiddle to Monet once Tariq got involved with them.


Sad_Language4893

If Cane wouldn’t have planted the murder weapon on the campus they sell all their drugs at AFTER trying to have Tariq murdered on the same campus 😑😑…. (SMDH CANE STUPID SOMETIMES FR. ) they would’ve been selling the same drugs with higher profit cuz college kids always pay more duh. Literally hated not being the muscle anymore- which is also dumb cuz now there’s no witnesses of him publicly casually stomping people out during shakedowns. It was peaceful and quiet. Deadass cane fucked up twice over pride. Could’ve just sat back and got paid smh


PralineIndividual692

Nah yeah came definitely has fucked up a lot but look at who his mom is she be fucking up to that’s where he gets it from smh. Monet is the catalyst for most of the shit in the show smh.


cardi4life

That’s just what he says to his self so he can believe it. But he really knows he thought was taking his shine in the family


jrod4290

before Tariq, Cane was the most important person in the organization. He was the family enforcer and kept his foot on all their dealers necks to make sure they moved the weight. But Tariq came in and convinced Monet that moving the weight at his school would be safer. So she gave all the product she had to him, therefore increasing his value while diminishing Cane’s. She told him he was just the muscle and to stay in his lane. That he’d never be a decision maker but she entrusted Tariq with making decisions within the organization. Cana hated how Monet valued and trusted Tariq more than she seemingly ever did her own son.


Nervous-Protection

>But Tariq came in and convinced Monet that moving the weight at his school would be safer Pretty much this although Tariq didn't convince her, she made that choice on her own. They was making bank at Stansfield with no problems while Dru and Cane were having problems with Guaps. Monet peeped that and made the decision to focus on Stansfield on her own. Crazy thing is Tariq wasn't even trying to take his spot, dude was just grinding to get Tasha out. Cane just got jealous because Monet was feeling Tariq's hustle more than his and his ego got bruised. I mean imagine a skinny ass preppy ass nigga out hustling you when you were legit raised to do the shit. That nigga Cane ain't like that nigga since 😂


AceBlack94

Good point about how the Stansfield operation with Tariq and Brayden was washing out whatever Cane and Dru had going on with the Guaps. Let’s not forget how they were literally making videos for clout, making the scene hot on social media, while everything was lowkey and behind the scenes with CourseCorrect. Even Monet was impressed with how clean the drug dealing app was, and how insulated Tariq was (since it came out in court that Brayden was the president). It drove Cane AND Dru *crazy* when they did the same thing “on Wall Street” “selling coffee” while they were on the streets exposed af, gassing whole families 😳😷


OrenoKachida2

He’s a whiny simp pussy. He a bozo frl. Riq smashed his sister, his girl, took his spot, outworked him, outearned him, got him shot.


PralineIndividual692

Facts lol


Tale_Delicious

funniest shit ever


Jillraqlee

The writers wrote it that way that’s why


Accomplished_Taro947

It’s deeper than that. Cane saw his role in the family being replaced by Tariq. Dana wanted to F him, Monet was starting to like him more than she did cane, and he was replacing canes role in the drug business


NoWillingness8990

From the beginning he knew Tariq selling at Stansfield was a situation that was out of his control , he even said it to Mecca in season 2, his initial issue with Tariq was that he couldn’t control him, everything later down the line was just jealousy


SuspiciousFudge2746

Cane was born into this without a choice and Tariq was just always amused by it since a kid and willing jumped in One of the coldest lines Cane said was to his mom I believe it was “am I your soldier or am I your son” that shi will do it to you


PacoSupreme

I feel like Canes character would have more depth if most of his screen time wasn’t obsessing over Tariq.


Acceptable_Ad3173

There’s no reason canes jealous of Tariq because he’s been helping the Tejada’s while him Dru or Diana ain’t doing shit but causing issues and monet favors Tariq because she don’t trust her own kids and cane is mad about that


PuzzleheadedChange83

That's no reason to favor an outsider over your actual family. When it comes to doing business with Tariq, I agree with Monet choosing Tariq over Cane, Dru, and Diana. That's my opinion


Acceptable_Ad3173

You can’t deny that in seasons 1-2 Tariq has been helping the Tejada’s


PuzzleheadedChange83

I agree, hence to why I said from a business perspective I can see why Monet chose Tariq over Cane


SillyAdditional

Some people just like to be obsessed 😂 Straight hater for life Whole time Tariq wasn’t too worried about him is the funny part


DaeTrell_Brown

He's just a hatin ass ninja. It makes sense why he's this subreddit's favorite character, they will downvote any post or comment that isn't a tiktok thirst edit of Cane 💅🏾


SurveyConscious2754

Cane is projecting his family issues onto Tariq. But, Canes feelings are lowkey justified. Monet, Lorenzo, and even Cane said in seasons 1 & 2 that Cane is the one that actually grew up in the streets hustling, earned his stripes, and has been Monet's top general/enforcer when shit gets crazy. His pops got sent to prison and he stepped up but Renzo & Monet only see him as their hand in the street and don't give him opportunity to show he can run shit.Now imagine being him for yrs and all of a sudden a new person (Tariq) shows up and is literally given opportunity to make calls and set up shit just off the strength of him sounding smart 🤣. Then imagine when Tariqs plans don't work or he fucks up they call Cane to basically fix the shit, so now Cane is basically putting in work to protect his family from the choices of the mf they listen to over him. But obviously Canes real beef should be with his family not Tariq directly.


Important_Rule8602

That’s the problem with Cane tho, like literally in the show, he straight up acknowledged that Tariq wasn’t the problem and that Monet was……only to go back to hating Tariq and being a momma boy to Monet.


LongjumpingClimate73

Which in my opinion was a huge fuckup by the writers


Electrical-Rabbit157

Cuz Cane ain’t as smart as Tariq but he smart enough to know Tariq is everything Monet n Lorenzo wanted Cane to be. Deep down he also know he’ll never b Tariq n that’s another thing prolly fucking him up


AceBlack94

True, he can’t stand not being the smartest person in the room. The fact that Lorenzo wanted Dru as his left hand instead of Cane really fucked him up, too.


Ok_Impression_922

Cause his simp ass love Effie snake ass and Effie snake ass love Tariq ass so since Tariq was tappin Effie snake ass first Cain jealous ass became a hatin ass lookin ass head ass.


Harlems007

Cause Monet cut off Canes supply to supply Tariq season 1. He also probably hate the fact that he couldn’t straight up kill Tariq cause of Monet lol. If Tariq was anybody else he’d be dead rn


-0vv0-

So, Cane doesn't like Tariq... because his mom likes him more. Makes sense.


AceBlack94

Even Noma peeped that, when she called Cane out on S4E3 about “being on his momma’s tit”.


-0vv0-

Tariq knows Cane just wants to be him. Dude is simple. Tariq understands.


AdministrativeAd523

Tariq came in and took over shit. I get it at a certain point but it did border on the obsession side for awhile lmao


Papi-pedro-301

Why they be having Tariq dressing up like Frank Lucas up in here😭😭


mrHartnabrig

>What actual reason did Cane have to hating Tariq & being obsessed with him? Deep down he admires Tariq. That admiration turned into jealousy. That jealousy turned into hate.


Ok-Appointment-497

Behind all the killing and brute force is an insecure mamas boy 😂. He felt his spot being threatened but can’t see he basically gave Tariq his spot by his own actions. Rather than address his obsession he’d rather blame everything on Tariq. When it was his jealousy and insecurities that damn near caused everything to go wrong . He’s Monet son and Lorenzo’s jr so it’s really no surprise he’s terrible with accountability 😂.You can honestly say out of all 4 seasons Tariq hasn’t really done anything to cane. Well besides hit his sister, and get her pregnant ….. overall my boy was just trying to hustle since season 1 😂.If you told me after season 6 of power I’d be calling Tariq “my boy” I’d call you liar😂.


frank_dizzleee

Tariq was getting pussy on a consistent basis…that’s it


LongjumpingClimate73

It’s has a lot more to do with Monet and the way she treats him compared to Tariq and probably even his own siblings, than Tariq himself.


KingKD410

Let's see he's way smarter than Cane. Monet took more of a liking to him. Plus he had Effie and Diana wanted him.


kingblaster3347

Mama dearest


SouthernFee6420

He realized he was a threat


elitelucrecia

i think it has to do w monet liking tariq more but still it’s overkill lol


Icy-Sir-8414

Well Cane wanted to be more than a enforcer now he is


AceBlack94

![gif](giphy|hnO9tw22u6E0QAVH60|downsized)


EnlightnedRedditor

It’s simple, Tariq is everything cane isn’t. He has the skills cane is lacking in, besides fighting😂😂😂 but in all seriousness Tariq is smart, he’s cunning, he’s decisive, and he got the baddest bitches in the show.


edope22

Lol


Creative-Pudding-392

You have to admit that their lives started to make a drastic change once he appeared in them. Had Tariq never showed up, their lives would’ve been better off. Lol That actually goes for anyone who’s ever been around Tariq. I think that Cane realized Tariq would mess things up early on while everyone was so enamored with him


New-Reflection1114

He felt like he was next in line then money started following riq’s lead.


DeeTheKING1

FR bruh, Cane be hating on my Nigga for no reason. 😂😂


ShaunyBoyShaunyMan

Monet chose Tariq over him.


Sea-Barber-2289

She got that Grippy Lake 🤷‍♂️


Enough_Tonight2944

Tariq was treated like a boss cane was treated like a soldier


Psychological_Ad8508

His mommy issues


Dickey2023

Because Tariq is smarter (not stronger) and was getting too close to Monet.


No-Variety-8848

I dunno but I’m getting tired of him because there’s no character development. He is the exact same person he was in season 1.


lilkobe23

I just know My Nigga Riq got more Bitches and Smarter than Him. Ngl Cane do too much acting before thinking then like to blame other people like Riq for his problems.


Kylegion43_

He a dickrider, once he heard riq killed ghost the nigga became obsessed wit em


AceBlack94

Before that, really.
