The beauty in being an artist--whether your art of choice is music, writing, painting, acting, or spreading the joy of laughter through stand-up comedy--is that you give a little piece of yourself in every little work you create. This allows you to live on forever!

 2017 is coming to a close and as it departs, it takes with it some notable artists who, despite no longer being here with us in the flesh, have given us so many little pieces of themselves. Their memories will last us a lifetime. Here are 10 black celebs we lost in 2017. They will be missed. #RIP
