Jay Z at Columbia University on Tuesday
As the world continues to mourn the legendary basketball player, Kobe Bryant, honouring his legacy and testifying to his greatness, veteran hip hop artiste and music mogul, Jay – Z has also revealed the last thing his late friend told him while addressing the press at Columbia University on Tuesday.
“He was just in the greatest space that I’ve seen him in,” Jay Z said.
“One of the last things he said to me was, you’ve gotta see Gianna play basketball. And that was one of the most hurtful things, because he was so proud. And the look on his face was like — I looked at him and said, ‘Oh, she’s going to be the best female basketball player in the world.”
“He was just so proud. So that’s really a tough one,” he added.
Speaking about how he and wife Beyoncé are taking the loss, he said: “My wife and I took [their deaths] … really tough. That’s all I’ll say on that. Just a great human being and was in a great space in his life.”
