Isaac Hayes has died

RIP, Issac Hayes.

First Bernie Mac, now him. I just read on the IMDB that both Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes are in a movie together later this year called Soul Men. Looks like this movie is even more cursed than the Dark Knight.
 
What really gets me is that the celebrity deaths are just gonna keep increasing until all the older celebs we know and love are gone. :(
 
Very very shocking news. He was a true pioneer.

Some years ago he appeared on either the Tonight Show or Letterman with a
full orchestra and back up singers and did the "Theme" live, complete with
the obligatory wah-wah pedal guitar. It sounded better than the recorded
version.

I'll never forget the night he won his Oscar, when came up to the stage with
his shaved head (then considered excentric and way out there) and the chain
link shirt. It has to be one of the highlights in the show's history.

RIP, Black Moses.

RIP, Isaac. The weird thing is I just read in his obit that he and Bernie Mac were both in a film that recently finished shooting, along with Samuel Jackson, called "Soul Men." -- RR
 
R.I.P. Mr. Hayes.

The dark Knight is Cursed?
other than Heath's passing why is cursed?
 
Estelle Getty, Suzanne Pleshette, Michael Turner, Heath Ledger, Jeff Healy, Bernie Mac, and now.......Isaac Hayes.

Who's next?

Anyway, I have a song in mind to mark his passing.

Shaft-Isaac Hayes

Who's the black private dick
That's a sex machine to all the chicks?
(Shaft!)
You're damn right

Who is the man
That would risk his neck for his brother man?
(Shaft!)
Can ya dig it?

Who's the cat that won't cop out
When there's danger all about
(Shaft!)
Right on

You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother--
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' about Shaft
(Then we can dig it)

He's a complicated man
But no one understands him but his woman
(John Shaft!)

Rest in peace, Brotherman.:(
