damn, we lost 2 icons in black entertainment, and entertainment in general.....

we all gotta die someday tho

 

His character Chef on South Park had relationships with WW. Has anyone heard the CD Chef Aid with the song Chcolate Salty Balls? It was hilarious. Him and Gordon Parks had made the movie Shaft one of the greatest Black movie ever. He would be sorely missed.

 

First Bernie Mac, now this. People keep saying that these things come in threes, so I'm wondering who's next?

R.I.P to one of the greatest souls singers of all time. Mr. Isaac Hayes. :cry:


Now I'm about to go watch my "Truck Turner" DVD to pay homage.

 

Rest In Peace. Isaac was one smooth cat and a real cultural icon.

 

Wow I just read in the USAToday Issac Hayes, Bernie Mac and Samuel L Jackson have a movie coming out in Nov 08. One of the comments from the article states "I bet Samuel IS looking over his shoulder". I agree

 

Yo, I was just thinking of Truck Turner. That movie is the shit.

 

Isaac Hayes was a great singer and from Memphis too!!!!!

 

Good Lord, what is going on in the world?

May his soul rest in peace
