The Dark Psychology of Tariq St Patrick 

The only thing Power dropped the ball with is why Tariq was so mad at Ghost.

Tariq is such a character I like so much. His ability to deliver academically amidst all the difficulties inspires me a lot.

For me one of biggest impact on Tariq was hating his past self. Tariq changed shocked me a lot. Initially he appeared, as rather introvert kid that prefers to stay at home and play video games. He didn't go outside his comfort zone that much. To the point that he was almost always in background and never spoke much. This is probably because he was jealous of Raina. How successful she was, and how much she was praised. This left him with insecurities that he tried to keep to himself. When Ghost and Tasha broke, he felt more confused than angry. As he had not much problem to live in Angela apartment. Biggest change obviously came upon meeting Kanan. Current version of Tariq is truly Kanan Junior. Somebody who accomplishes everything with pride, power and force. He is impatient and arrogant. I think Tariq new persona, is result of hating his own former weak self. He wants others to fear him, he wants to show power to forget how weak he was in the past. His hatred for his father awakened only when, he gathered enough confidence.

Tariq protects people who have manipulated him. Kanan fed him lies and played on it. Tasha used the fact he would do anything for her to her advantage. James wasn’t a perfect man but he did his best to try to keep him away from the life. Tommy even protected him until he had him help with the Proctor situation.

He’s not a sociopath or a psychopath. He simply mimics his father who he hates, but cannot shake the genetic personality given to him by his father’s influences. It wasn’t until his father cheated on his mom that Tariq found out who his dad was, and did not like that. Tariq has the best parts of his father, however his hatred overshadows the good parts in him sometimes.

I still just don’t see how Tariq hated Ghost so much to kill him.. they definitely should’ve gave more reasons to why

I think the thing is Tariq never seen the consequences of his father’s action ..so he never really understood how deep shii can get ..hence it took his sister dying at the hand of him to understand it’s a ugly game ..he just seen a big house and happy uncle tommy ..so ofc he was gonna hop innat water not expecting sharks ..his dad was well respected too

Tariq is a guy with daddy issues, he had the whole 🌎 in his hands, he just needed to finish his education... He forgot that Ghost was the reason, he's not dead, many wanted to use Tariq head as payment but Ghost and Tummy fought for his safety. However, I can't hate everything, Course Correct was a brilliant move. Kudos bro for another breakdown analysis

I’m sorry to everyone who may disagree, but as much as I love Tariq, I still think his dad was smarter than him. Rarely was his dad ever caught off guard, he was always 2 steps ahead. Actually, once we learned about his will he had written before he died, he was 5 steps ahead.

Tariq is misunderstood as a character. You have to watch the OG Power series in it’s entirety to connect the dots in Ghost & Tariq’s relationship. He ended up hating Ghost for a list of reasons

Tariq is apart of the reason why Zeke is dead because Tariq knew that Diana would look into the bag and tell the business to Lorenzo. Why didn't Tariq just give that bag to Davis when he gave Davis the ring to avoid Diana looking in the bag?

Your editing skills go crazy with these videos, you’ve inspired me bro

The background theme in 5:08 🥶gave a real suspense and feel to the characters you gave a description

Your Dark psychology analysis is epic, plus the editing is wow... This is great work put in here..... Tariq is unconsciously wearing Ghost characters even more darkest that James.. like what he said his father lived a complicated life and many things he will get to know about him that will at some point dawn on him that his hatred thus his father couldn't allowed him appreciate the kind of Man he was both on street and Business world. Ghost wasn't lieing when he told him he can't never go back, the only person who is capable of telling him truth is Tommy and most of the time his runs by emotions, Tasha nah has done more worst than Good to him or his associate he knows more than which will make him undermine their advice. He's going deeper and deeper into the Game with more trouble day after day because of his solely strategic without loyal soldiers to execute or backing him up.

I think Tariq showed remorse with the killing of Jabari. He even pleaded with him about why he couldn't just leave it alone. He didn't want to kill Jabari.

Well well welll done! Loved this I wanted for so long someone to analyze everyone on Power if you could I would love to hear your psychological view point👊🏽🎯⭐️

You should do Frank Castle from the Punisher

Why I’m not seeing any comments giving you credit for your incredible work???? You are doing an amazing job brother

I can understand why Tariq turned out how he was … but it wasn’t just because of Ghost. It was everybodies doing, at least Ghost tried to change. It ain’t his fault he couldn’t see shit like everybody else, trouble always came to Ghost somehow. If anything Tasha did more by actually teaching Tariq the ways even though I understand why. Tariq wanted his dad dead, it was a matter of him trynna grow bigger balls then his dad. It ain’t right to just blame this on the man who died in the finale, everybody had a hand in Tariq being who he is mainly Kanan, Tasha, & Ghost.

Another great break down

If only he knew how terrible Tasha was as well. She legit slept with Shawn someone he looked at as a big brother.

I always thought Tariqs hate for Ghost was exaggerated. Theres no way a kid would kill their father that easy. I feel like Tariq did not have enough motivation to kill him. Tasha would have been a better choice to kill Ghost than Tariq. A good motivation would have been Ghost killing Tasha then Tariq avenging her. Not threatening to send him to jail.

love your videos bro they really make my day fr

This is my first time watching a video from your channel its 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Honestly I don’t think lying to tariq was a bad thing what kind of father is going to tell his kid he kills people and sells drugs if ghost told him everything tariq would of probably kept asking him to teach him how to hustle

Amazing video topic, and analysis of the dark psychology of Tariq St. Patrick, J. Wisdom. Michael Rainey Jr's performance is so good that he turns one of the most repugnant, and hated characters on television into a surprisingly fascinating character. The content that you add is so amazing, J. Wisdom. By the way, do you think that you can do a video topic, and analysis of Frank Martin from The Transporter movies, Raylan Givens from Justified, and Matt Murdock from Daredevil.

Good video, good background knowledge on the topic of psychology and honestly great character analysis

Everytime I watch a show or movie you put out a vid abt it 😂 keep going with ur vids they are dope

He play that character so well. All that hustling and bro still be running around late to class n shyt lol

It's amazing history man keep going

Let’s go bro, consistent bangers🔥

Ghost was trying his best to separate his street life from his kids. Tariq was asking questions, and Ghost couldn't be honest because it wasn't so simple. Ghost truly loved Tariq, it's just that Ghost was trapped in a world with the people he started out with. Ghost was trying to escape and take his loved ones with him but Tasha and Tommy couldn't understand.

I feel like you failed to mention Cain kinda forced Tariq to finish the job with Jabari

He his daddy son though and through

Let's be honest, with what was written and showed. Tariq didn't have motive to kill his father

I know he had his reasons for hating his father, but the whole “Teach me the game Ghost!” Thing was hilarious!! You would think that this is the part where Tariq would just not want anything to do with Ghost, but no,You hate the man, but want what he has, then when your bullshit catches up with you and Ghost doesn’t do what he wants him to, then it’s “you in the way!!” 😂😂😂😂

This last season you can see he is more psychotic this season smoking after a kill and just killing more easily

My only question about tariq is What is his end goal to dealing drugs?

Brilliant BRILLIANT video. Beautifully explained beautifully illustrated you did great on this video I love it

Amazing video, I love tariq Mann

I’ve been watching. Can you please do The Prestige. Both magicians would provide outstanding material!!!

Riq did ghost dirty james ascended to godhood and became the mayor made it out the game scott free and had a big smile on his face with a full beard

Interesting, watching your videos puts me on new movies and TV shows. Amazing content as always.

when i was watching power ghost was definitely their for Tariq

Love your videos can you do analysis of Jax. The one in son's of anarchy

You should do an analysis on Raylan Givens and Boyd Crowder from the television series Justified.

Need a Pt 2 after a couple more seasons of Book 2

You told me it was coming soon and man you weren’t lying thank you next i need ghost the series is over so i need it

GOOD VIDEO :3

Doesn’t make sense how he hated his farther because of the criminal life but ended doing the same criminal activity’s.still a great show tho

We Need A Dark Psyc vid on Kanan!!

8:10 What song is this? It’s so good!

W video as always 🔥 season 3 finna go crazy 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Video op 🔥

Young Tariq didn't understand his father that's why he was so mad at him. Now that he's walking in his father's shoes he now has a understanding and also a respect for his father

I like tariq even though many hate him. Could you do one of Jax Teller from sons of anarchy?

Here’s an oldie but fascinating character to analyze: Angel of Angel (Buffy The Vampire Slayer Spin off)

You should do Matt Murdock from Daredevil

Finally, amazing video 👏🏾 can you do one about ghost?

Bro came back clutch

You Fs gotta do one about Tommy

bro you have to do a video on dwight manfredi from tulsa king. 10/10 show.

Do one on Tommy and Kane please

Damn came back to this vid

Can you do Dushane Hill next?

Lmaooo jabari "tariq please please plaeseeeee you dint have to do this😢" lmaoooo jabarai was in disbelief he was not ready to die but riq said "😐 sorry professor 🏃‍♂️🔫"

Can you do one on Bumpy Johnson from The Godfather of Harlem

THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO AND VERY DETAILED ALL FACTS !!!! Tariq was also manipulated by Tasha and Kannan, and they projected their issues with Ghost on too Tariq. Therefore, Tariq only saw the bad that was in his father but he failed to see any faults or wrongs with his mother... Which Tasha by far was full of faults, and you would have thought he would have seen plenty in Kannan who was not a good person at all... Tariq was so hard on Ghost but he is everything worse than what his father was when it comes to ruining people's lives. Tariq comes across very sanctimonious as If he hasn’t hurt others and ruined his entire family lives. Tariq needs to come off his judgmental throne and realize he belongs to the streets because that is where he wanted to be!!! We argue this point a lot in our reviews… my vote he is a sociopath.

Could you do stringer and Avon

You should make a video about ghost

All about his benjamins

I think the big thing that kinda ruined him was ghost fcking da fed it prolly made him resent him a lot and do better than him and be rebellious

Could you do another ghost video

The whole you never did shit for me is such a lie from Tariq. His dad literally came running to save him when he went after ray ray. He saved him from Jukebox and Tariq got himself into this both of those situations

Hey you should do a video about damian anderson from creed 3 or a Jason Todd video

You should do a video about Leon from snowfall

do one on ghost next

You can do dark psychology of Snow fall Leon.

Product of his surroundings/ enviorment, but in the end he was being groomed as well. That being said, he was at that age in the new season where shit, you practically grown you can make your own choices. bro got so many bodies now he doesn't care because he's been through the hard part, taking out his own pops. Feel like once you at that stage you can't go no where but forward, which is what he's done. He not heartless, he just bold. because he feels like he needs to be, which in this game you truly do.

One cold hearted character 🥶

You should do Scott mcall from teen wolf

I think they were trying to move on without Omari so bad, they shifted Tariq's character arc without showing probable cause. I thought it was weak writing to turn an intelligent, rich Black boy into a dope dealer. Booooring. Then doing Kanaan's life story...the same story over and over, but they showed signs of creativity before.

Great point. What about Robert McCall from Equalizer?(Denzel Washington)

I feel like the effect of his mother going to kill ghost and ghost hitting her and his mom possibly going to jail completely is undersold to fit the narrative. Also the professor kind of had to go. There was no way they were gonna just walk away from that situation, and tariq wasn't even gonna kill him Kane started that he just finished it

Why does everyone forget Tasha cheated first 😂 …. All James did was stare at someone he didn’t see since they were kids.

Got an idea for your next video, Reacher.

🔥🔥

First off Cane shot the professor which put them in a difficult spot, that is a smart decision. He did not want to kill the professor, but the moment called for the professor’s death.

do amanda waller pls

Jabarl and Ray Ray has to get smoke

cab you do Kanan star 5 lesson you learned from him.

Can you break down Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious.

oh and bro you should a have video about the main charater in You

It’s really dark as a sibling, knowing your big brother killed your dad for no good tangible reason 🫢

Do you think you can send me your source talking about the affect on children not having a father im doing a essay on that

People can defend Tariq all they want and attribute a lot of his hate toward Ghost to him not being around but after Tariq got his sister killed the fact that it wasn’t a major shock to his system to do better makes him such a bad character to me

He doing it cuz his waves spinnin

I wish that Ghost would have been more honest with Tariq, especially when it comes to his son being built for the drug game.

GHOST WAS A NICER GUY THAN ME, "I WOULD HAVE BROKE TARIQ'S NECK"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never forget. Tasha cheated first lol.
