Raising Kanan Famous, Streets Need a Body Actor, Antonio AJ Ortiz | EP 22 | The Crew Has It 

Please please bring Proctor!!!! We need an interview with him 🤩😎

This might be The Crew's best interview since producer, writer, director Courtney Kemp was on the show. AJ is super duper cool and is confident, not cocky but confident. I gotta go back and watch the movie Illegal Tender just to catch him as little Randy.

He said it in the show “i dont cook and i dont like baseball. Im not that spanish!” My fav line that episode

Who woulda thought Famous would meet Tariq and Brayden? 😂

36:00 I couldn't agree more. I've never come across actors who are the most humble as the Power cast who interact with the fans as much as they do 👏👏

He is the same person in reality and on the show that’s dope af!!

I fucking love Gianni. 1:02:08 when he says “I don’t have the fear that you guys have”. C’mon brother 🙌🏾. Love his awareness

I'ma need that Joey Bada$$ episode y'all

The fact that he’s little Randy from Illegal Tenders blows my mind 🤯 I wish my mom was here to see him all grown up. We use to always watch that movie.

We need Raina's actress on an episode

They really just chopping it up....this is barely an interview but I love it. They chillin.

So basically bro survived season 2 for everyone saying he dying he not 💯 season 3 gonna be tuff

“We filming for season 3 rn” yep famous survives szn 2 …..💯🔥

I can listen to AJ talk all day. Loved his interview.

So Famous is alive for S3. Ok 😁 ❤️ his character. I can’t wait for Omar Epps’ episode

The chemistry between the gents is fire🔥. I enjoyed their conversation no cap💖

Famous and Brayden would be so funny on screen together lol it sucks that their characters are in two different time periods

He does a great job playing Famous!! Congrats on getting 100k subscribers!!

The chemistry in this episode is 🔥

NGL this podcast inspires me to keep dreaming. I almost gave up, but now I’m more locked in than ever🙏🏾💯

Shouts out Famous... Streets need a body is fire.

Love this guy. DO NOT KILL HIM OFF. The Fuc^king Crew Has It 🔥

I hope they interview Unique or Omari next‼️

One of the themes of the Power Universe is that the main character always has a best friend of a different ethnicity. Ghost and Tommy. Kanan and Shawn. Tariq and Brayden.

gianni acts like brayden in real life 🤣🤣🤣🤣

OMFG FAMOUS IS RANDY FROM ILLEGAL TENDER! Bro that’s my favorite movie ever!!!!! Yoooooooo my mind is blown!!!!

Congrats on 100K 🙏🏽

“Cuz they can’t fuckin rap” jus made me fw the actor even harder🤣✊🏾 great guest

Yup, this is officially my favorite episode 🔥🔥

The only dude in power who i can say truly talks like a new school new yorker!

This is really one of the best guests yet. So conversational and enjoyable to listen to. It just flows naturally.

You love to see it. Absolutely loving raising Kanan season 2 so far🙌

I love Gianni's energy 31:38 . He might be off the perc but I love it 😂

This was great on many levels; insight into this new generation of actors, the struggle, the new fame. My guys keep up the good interviews and please have him back on,,,!

Man I thought Aj looked familiar and seen him before. I picked it up that he was the little brother in Illegal Tender. That was a really good movie!

This is by far my favorite episode. So many gems being dropped. Love it!!!!

Come onnnn, BACK AGAIN!! Representing my fellow UK KINGS & QUEENS! First and foremost, Major round of applause to G & M, as well as the crew members for organising this interview. Definitely one of their best podcasts so far! Shout out to AJ, what a lad! Keep it up.

This just goes to show "everything happens for a reason" not only did Gianni get cast for a great show this man has a whole podcast out that's doing amazing as well ! I don't know who needs to hear this but keep fucking going bet on yourself always step off of what you know and step into what you believe in !

FAMOUS!! lol another fire episode! Anthony is really a student of his craft! So much depth to him and soo humble

Gianni, the story you shared about you at work while you were a catering server after you auditioned for those shows had me crying in my car for like 10 minutes 😭. Don’t judge lol, I’m so emotional. But really, with all of the support and encouragement I’ve gotten in my life, I have literally never felt so much hope for my future until I heard you share that one experience. You describing how down you felt in that moment was just soooo relatable. To see where you are now while you told that story touched and inspired me beyond words. I work my ass off, and I feel how you felt in that moment almost everyday. After hearing you share this, I feel so encouraged to keep pushing, and I feel more hopeful than I ever have that things won’t always be the way they are now for me. I admire and appreciate your transparency about your struggles before your blessings. Thank you so so much, keep being great! 🥹💗🤞🏾

I love this set up so much better!! Such a nice look for the show!💗 Congrats on over 100 thousand 👏 Keep up the great work!

Literally the only podcast I watch the day it comes out! Y’all are killing it 🔥❤

100K just like that ! The Crew really fuckin has it ! AJ is one of my favorite characters for sure ! Believe in yourself for real ! I'm a photographer and that is the best thing I've ever done ! Such a cool ass dude. Love his energy and intelligence. Such beautiful stories to go along with em ! That "Moment" by Gianni is beautiful man ! This was such a motivational episode guys ! This one is for sure up there as a favorite !

Congratulations on the plaque!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

This episode was great...just three actors rapping about the space and the experience along the way which is so Authentic!

Congrats on 100k !!!! Been watching since episode 1 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This! Yall out here inspiring me, Gianni's story about catering is so relatable for me here in L.A. Great podcast. Thank you

AJ told the story about meeting James Gandolfini and the woman who played his sister “Janice Soprano” in the show back in the day. Well Her name is aida turturro. In S1 of ghost I wanna say maybe the first episode, she plays the Judge.

What a phenomenal interview so impressed with all three of you gentlemen love the show love the honesty and the transparency of the actors really need to hear this especially me at this time God bless you all keep up the great good guys

Dope episode!!! 🔥🔥🔥 everyone vibed great!!! Keep it up boys 💪🏽

Good to know Famous makes it to season 3.

The episode was definitely more of a conversation than anything which is hard to create but 🔥 when it happens!

That's true! It's never "Michael"...always "MichaelRaineyJr." said really fast like a hashtag 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣

Congrats on 100k y’all killing it 🔥💯

AJ is pretty mature and grounded for his age. Great interview.

THE ENERGY DURING THIS EPISODE WAS AMAZING😍😍😍 I felt like I was there with y’all I was laughing and all y’all should do an episode where y’all invite at least one fan AND I HOPE IM THAT FAN😂‼️‼️

Wowwww. I watched Illegal Tender so many times growing up. Fire!!!

I’m loving the MGK shoutout. I’ve been rocking with that man since the Lace Up days as well. 10 plus years, he gave me a hug while I was picking up trash after his set at one of his festivals. He’s honestly one of this nicest people with a platform I’ve ever met. Slim is really nice too! Always says hi and has a smile on his face.

AJ is so Laid-back. Love him!

This interview was amazing. He seems like a great person too🙏🏽✨.

Another Lit Episode. Congrats on the RU-vid Plaque. Leggo!!!!

My favorite episode so far!

“ if I’m in the room with you. I’m here for a reason” period

53:51 Me pausing and Googling everything they are saying in this pod! Googling the Kanan tape and song with Post Malone. 🤣🤦‍♀

Dope interview 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Fire episode 🔥🔥🔥 we still patiently waiting for someone from force !!!

It’s a conversation, G you’re doing great. Fire interview once again 🔥💥🥶

“ Never feel to Entitled because that’s when you deprive yourself “

Y’all kill it every week y’all much love from Australia 🇦🇺

This was a great episode. AJ the man

That was the most dope thing from Aj!!! Take care of ur family 💪

I love Illegal Tender!!! Going to put it on my watch list for this week lol

This episode is FIREEE!!

This show shows how’s someone my age is doing so much for potential, this show is really like a marvel or dc series’s, the power shows will get back on the same level as the first, I think the next episodes should have someone from force now 😌

🔥🔥🔥🔥love y'all energy! Gianni is hilarious

Chemistry and vibes Best episode yet Fr, keep up the good work

James Gandolfini?!? 😮 I love this episode! All you guys together were even funnier 😂😁

Illegal Tender is one of my fave movies. Wanda DeJusus was the ish in it! My jaw hit my desk when u said I was on Ilegal Tender. As soon as you said it I remembered you were the little scared boy in the closet. You have a great personality!

I love AJ’s personality LMAOO

I love how they keep it real about the experience with "fans." Waiting for someone for 6 hours is NOT ok! There's appreciation..but there's a line.

Very dope interview!

This was a really good episode!

Congrats on 100k+ 🎉🎉🎉

The one with Lobos and Saxe were my favorites so far, and this one is cool too because it’s more like friends just chopping it up🤟

18 minutes in & this is sooo good already

Love this episode I love famous he one of my favorite characters ❤
