The loss of Kobe Bryant is more than just the passing of a sports figure. Bryant was a role model to an entire generation. His life played out for all to see. Both professionally and on a personal level. To truly understand how his death impacts us, how it climbs inside us and leaves us numb we asked our colleague, Xayveon to share his feelings.

Whether you were a fan or not, take a moment to listen to a heartfelt perspective on what Kobe meant to others. Many, many others both in and out of the sports world. - *Editor
