Singer Isaac Hayes Dead At 65
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) ― Isaac Hayes, the pioneering singer, songwriter and musician whose relentless "Theme From Shaft" won Academy and Grammy awards, has been found dead at home. He was 65.

The Shelby County Sheriff's Office says a family member found Hayes unresponsive near a treadmill on Sunday. He was pronounced dead about an hour later at Baptist East Hospital in Memphis. The cause of death was not immediately known.

In the early 1970s, Hayes laid the groundwork for disco, for what became known as urban-contemporary music and for romantic crooners like Barry White. And he was rapping before there was rap.

His career hit another high in 1997 when he became the voice of Chef, the sensible school cook and devoted ladies man on the animated TV show "South Park."

... He might of been forced to leave South Park by his religion, but he was still an amazing part of that show and singer.

You know.. A local news report said "Isaac Hayes, most likely well known for creating the theme for Shaft, has passed away." And NO WHERE in that report was his mention of the multiple years of being in the multiple-award winning (as well as his own awards due to this show) South Park. Idiots.

On the radio this morning they were saying that NOBODY mentioned that Isaac Hayes had a radio show in New York.

He also appared on Stargate SG-1 as a Jaffa leader. He also made a VO cameo in the 200th episode for the skit "Teal'c, P.I." which was really funny even if it lasted only 30 seconds.
