The wait is nearly over for Top Boy season 3. Netflix has announced that the next instalment of the much-anticipated show will consist of ten brand new episodes and will launch on the 13th September. It's been a long wait for Top Boy fans as season two was released way back in 2013. Weirdly enough, rapper, Drake played a huge part in getting this made. He reportedly became obsessed with the show and partnered with Netflix to bring the original writing team back together, Ronan Bennett alongside Daniel West, to create season 3.
