Kendrick & Kobe Talk About Their Evolution to Greatness at ComplexCon 2017

Ойын-сауық

Kobe Bryant and Kendrick Lamar have both reached the mountaintop in their respective fields, so you'd be wise to listen up when they share how they arrived there.
Complex News' Jinx sat down with Kobe and Kendrick at ComplexCon to get their take on what people miss when it comes to truly achieving greatness.
"I think there's a certain stubbornness that comes along with being great," Kobe said. "I think people see greatness as kind of an easy road, like a one-path thing. You work hard, and then all of a sudden it happens. It don't work like that. There's a lot of darkness that comes from that as well. There's a lot of personal experiences that you go through that you use as fuel to propel you forward. Whereas otherwise it would just be obstacles for others; it might even prevent them from going forward. Whereas for us, those moments do nothing but fuel us even more."
Kendrick offered similar sentiment on the topic. "It's the curiosity of it. The fear, the anxiety. It's the curiosity of knowing, damn, I can possibly overcome this. And when you do and another one approaches, I wanna challenge that too. That's real greatness."
Check out the full interview above, where Kobe and Kendrick share when they knew they were on to something special in their careers, why Kobe believes he's failed if 20 years from now basketball is the best thing he's done in his life, and how Kendrick got inspired watching Kobe's final game.

    Kobe will never die. He's in LeBron James' leadership. He's in DeMar DeRozan's midrange shot. He's in Devin Booker's heat check. He's in Novak Djokovic's competitive spirit. He's in Kendrick Lamar's words of wisdom. He's in your heart. Kobe will never die.

Bill Gates is the perfect example of an extremely successful technology pioneer and yet what he's doing in the second chapter of his life is more defining than the first chapter. The man is well on his way to eradicating Polio worldwide and has given $100bn to charity. Another great example Andrew Carnegie à wealthy industrialist who is known for the second chapter of his life than the first. We today enjoy his libraries and halls he built.

    20 years ago in 04 I watched Kobe fight like he'll against the Pistons, my team. We won that year but we all knew the Lakers weren't all on the same page. But I will NEVER forget how Kobe could singlehandedly take over a game and win off grit and skill and a steel determination... I've always admired him. I cannot comprehend that he's gone, even after 4 years. 2024 is dedicated to 24, he left a legacy behind that still has us aiming higher and higher.

    man its astonishing to me how well spoken Kobe is, media people can't piece together concise sentences to get their points across but Kobe out here dishing dimes (haha no pun intended) with ease while keeping me so engaged. No wonder he explored story telling after his NBA days RIP Goat

    Kendrick can speak straight among other rappers without adding gibberish or "you know waamsayin" cuz he never did drugs that would fck up his mental and that's one motivation.
