When Kobe Bryant died I just wanted it not to be true and I wanted his daughter not to be on the helicopter that day. GG was just like him, and his wife said it. GG would not want to be without her father, “God knew they could not be on earth without each other” and she was going to be one of the best WNBA players in her life but it was not to be. Michael Jordan looked human and his life was better with Kobe. A little piece of him died when Kobe did.
Shaquille was devasted when Kobe died. They had a good relationship built on respect. He was living his life in full. The Beyonce song “XO” was the perfect song for Kobe and his wife.
Being a businessman and leaving a legacy to his daughters was the perfect gift to them. Generational wealth and I hope they have a lot of kids, his children. I see greatness in the family name forever as long as the earth exists. I know that everything dies but some things make you sad they have to go. God doesn’t make any junk, he sure doesn’t want any junk in heaven.
Jennifer Hudson’s song to Kobe was perfect and the best fan film ever Dear Kobe (Animated Short Film)
The worst part of this Legacy was the Gayle king Interview with Lisa Leslie but Snoop Dog responded the right way. I lost all respect for Oprah and Gayle that day his girls have to see that mess. The world was crying and Gayle wanted to bring up something from 2003 and that was in poor taste and your words the women did not want to go to trial. Life is hard. Gayle King made a mistake, not something she should have bought up she was used if she did not do this on her own and she had poor judgment. Judgment is he was a girl dad and he raised his kids beautiful girls from the top of their heads to the bottom of their feet inside beauty and outside. In 2003 he made a mistake but he grew and changed and became a new man before he died was a kid when he made that mistake he slept with someone else and that was not his wife. He cheated on his marriage, damn black men have been accused of rape and did not do a damn thing. Most lynchings in the south were over-consensual sexual relationships that white women with black men or black men were successful white men were jealous of. Emmitt Till accuser was lying on and he was killed and the white women said years later, he did not do that. So it is bad history for black men and white women.
This is about keeping the legacy alive
Your love is bright as ever
Even in the shadows
Baby kiss me
Before they turn the lights out
Your heart is glowing
And I’m crashing into you
Baby kiss me
Before they turn the lights out
Before they turn the lights out
Baby love me lights out
In the darkest night hour (in the darkest night hour)
I’ll search through the crowd (I’ll search through the crowd)
Your face is all that I see
I’ll give you everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out
You can turn my lights out
We don’t have forever
Ooh, baby daylight’s wasting
You better kiss me
Before our time has run out
Mmm yeah
Nobody sees what we see
They’re just hopelessly gazing, oh
Oh, baby take me, me
Before they turn the lights out
Before our time has run out
Baby love me lights out
In the darkest night hour (in the darkest night hour)
I’ll search through the crowd (I’ll search through the crowd)
Your face is all that I see
I’ll give you everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out
You can turn my lights out
I love you like XO
You love me like XO
You kill me boy XO
You love me like XO
All that I see
Give me everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out
You can turn my lights out
In the darkest night hour (in the darkest night hour)
I’ll search through the crowd (I’ll search through the crowd)
Your face is all that I see
I’ll give you everything
Baby love me lights out
Baby love me lights out
You can turn my lights out

After Oprah came to Gayle King’s defense over Lisa Leslie’s interview in which CBS showed a clip of King asking Leslie about Kobe Bryant’s sexual assault charge in 2003, our co-host Erica Cobb breaks down these conversations as a black woman in media. “When we’re having these conversations in mainstream media, especially as a black woman in media, we have to be so careful because this narrative has already been out there in a way that mainstream media was never about because there was zero representation in 2003 to even have a thought of what the Kobe side could have been,” Cobb explains. “And now we’re here and we’re having these conversations and we can’t have these conversations with even a hint of not having historical context in them because it is just that painful. And that’s the reason why no one wants to hear from any black woman or black man in mainstream media that isn’t speaking love and peace and honor on Kobe Bryant’s name, less than two weeks after his death
Rapper Snoop Dogg took to social media to blast CBS anchor Gayle King for her Lisa Leslie interview in the wake of Kobe Bryant’s death. “We expect more from you, Gayle,” he said. “Why are you attacking us? We’re your people.” DBL’s Lindsey Granger explains: “As black people, we’ve been so systematically oppressed that we’re never in these high spaces. So when you make it to a certain point in life, you don’t want to be the black person to pull down the person who ‘made it.'”
Gayle needed to apologize to Kobe’s family before snoop apologizes to her. Gayle was the wrong period. That is all I have to say about that.
