No Matter How Many People Say It Was “His Time” And “He Accomplished What He Needed Too” I’m Always Gonna Feel Like Nah Man, It Feels Like We Were Just Witnessing The Beginning Of The Next Phase Of Life For Kobe With Tons Of Great Things On The Horizon

It’s Harsh Reality

You're right, hell I own this man's book, shyt was literally sold out around Christmas time last year. Had to go through hell to find it. I can't even imagine how many of his books are sold out now but even when he was alive he was a legitimate renaissance man that was going to make headway in anything he chose to pursue.

You know
I’ve been telling people how I’ve witnessed deaths that were shocking and of those who were MAJOR icons. For me, it’s the combination of the shock factor combined with how much of an icon Kobe is. Then when you factor in him only being 41 and how unbelievably horrific this tragedy was, it just sends your emotions to into overboard...

The Fact that it was a Helicopter Crash and his daughter was on the plane makes it even more . unbelievable ….It may be crazy to say but When I see the picture of all the victims together I can't believe that Kobe/Gigi are among the group.

It's bizzare

Kobe's drive is a prime example of why I can't stand lazy brothers out here.

People who do nothing but sit around and feel sorry for themselves. No passion for anything.

He was the polar opposite of that and didn't tolerate slackers.

If some of our brothers out here had even an inkling of Kobe's determination, they'd all be productive men.
I think it's our duty as black men that got there shyt together to try to pick up others that may not

HELL NO, Give insight, inspiration, and uplift? Yes


Pick them up/Save them, Nah man all thats gonna do is weigh you down. Seen it, Been there, You can't change people. People only gonna want to be great when they get to that point mentally.

This sounds good but truth of the matter is cats have to want to better themselves fam. If not it will become you funding dudes instead of actually helping ime.
You know.... I used to be on some save the world shyt

But nowadays I realize it's not about trying to walk/carry people through shyt, instead I'm more about imprinting, offering advice, dropping jewels, pushing someone who is already trying to be great, giving different perspectives, praising people on even the smallest accomplishments

Every little bit matters
