Having spent the entire first season establishing an ideology of family, respect and a sort of pacifistic approach to dealing in Detroit, Meech ended it by settling his differences with the crazed Lamar and seeing Terry walk away from the business to side with the family away from Meech. Dangling his BMF chain, as the right side of the brain, Meech is full of ideas and great visions but constantly oversteps what would be considered logical. This cements some doubt in some of his followers, who see the business as much more cutthroat, and Meech must address this as he expands beyond the territory he knows.

After receiving settlement money for the damage negligent surgeons caused to his eye, along with his parents, Terry Flenory opted to invest in a local car service business. He is a young man with an opportunity to still go through college, remaining settlement money heaped in a savings account, weighed down by the responsibility of fatherhood and maintaining a steady breaking family. The pressure is on Terry to make pivotal decisions that left him at odds with Meech. While not entirely innocent, he prefers the anonymity from the extravagant and chaotic lifestyle of dealers, like his brother, and considers entertaining his parents’ wishes by sticking with the family business heading into Season 2.

The real man of the house, Charles Flenory is broken down by the chaos of his family unravelling and attempting to salvage it through his seemingly only straight and narrow son. After spending time fixed on Meech’s attempts to help the family with his dirty money, Charles’ eyes gleamed over Terry’s involvement to ensure he doesn’t go to a place of no return. In this next season, Charles and the family will have a business on their hands.

Unlike Charles, Lucille is honest with herself regarding Terry’s involvement. She doesn’t fall for Terry’s baby’s mother, LaWanda’s falsities about what her son does in his spare time. Knowing Terry also sells drugs, identifying the enabling factors and people around him, Lucille endeavours to get the best for Terry while maintaining he can put it all to good use in the family business. 

The third OG of the 50 Boyz Crew, Meech and Terry’s original group, B-Mickie sits below Meech and Terry in the pecking order while having the feeling and thoughts for more. He’s very decisive, trigger happy, and found himself in an interrogation room with an ultimatum that could mark the beginning of the end for what’s not even started.

If you’re making a hood film or TV show and Wood Harris isn’t in it, you should just keep it. A supporting character that acts as a harsh teacher for the Flenory brothers, Pat was the one who put them in the hustling game but he proved to be too small for the potential that is BMF, slowing the boys down in their attempt to thrive beyond his tutelage. 

Steve Harris, the brother of Wood Harris, plays an awkward Detroit detective with decades of experience handling street affairs. He once offered fair council and warning for the non-violent Meech until he breached such a pact. After losing his partner, and interrogating B-Mickie on his involvement in some unsolved murders, Bryant must consider his next steps. Will he expose Meech and risk his career, or continue and leave what is done unsaid? Time will tell.

Caught in an infatuation triangle with a murderer and a drug dealer, Monique’s sole concentration is the protection of her child. Having suffered by the hands of Lamar’s abusive ways, Monique was set free in his killing by Meech.

A Pastor with the aura of an ex-convict turned morally righteous, Swift has an insight to the technicalities of the lifestyle while being a proponent of change. He acts as a great space to vent for the Flenory family, but more so Meech. We can expect to see him next season attempting to uphold the family’s sanity as their lifestyles grow and change. 

The Black Mafia Family was famed for its work in Atlanta, especially its financial play within its clubs—specifically, the strip clubs. Goldie is a sophisticated strip club owner, knowledgeable about the city and a key player in introducing Meech to a new setup and future for BMF.

A smart and incisive agent with years of street smarts under her belt, Tracey is a drug deal-busting veteran who knows how to play it smart, cool, and rough. She understands the weight of the badge she carries, and yet is smart to utilise her experience to avoid the administrative tasks opting to aim for the heart.

An alluring figure who is in and around the family in one of the new cities they visit, Deanna could be a love interest, she could be a major player running the strip clubs. We don’t know yet! But it will be exciting to see Yung Miami in her first acting role.
