| Isaac Hayes - Shaft |
 |
Isaac Lee Hayes, Jr. (August 20, 1942 --
August 10, 2008)[1] was an American soul and
funk singer-songwriter, musician, record
producer, arranger, composer and actor. Hayes
was one of the main creative forces behind
southern soul music label Stax Records, where
he served as both an in-house songwriter and
producer with partner David Porter during the
mid-1960s. In the late 1960s, Hayes became a
recording artist, and recorded successful
soul albums such as Hot Buttered Soul (1969)
and Black Moses (1971) as the Stax label's
premier artist.
Alongside his work in popular music, Hayes
was a film score composer for motion
pictures. His best known work, for the 1971
blaxploitation film Shaft, earned Hayes an
Academy Award for Best Original Song (the
first Academy Award received by an
African-American in a non-acting category)
and two Grammy Awards. He received a third
Grammy for the album Black Moses.
In 1992, in recognition of his humanitarian
work, he was crowned an honorary king of
Ghana's Ada district. From 1997 to 2006, he
provided the voice for the character "Chef"
on the Comedy Central animated TV series
South Park.
Hayes was found dead in his Memphis home on
August 10, 2008 as reported by the Shelby
County sheriff's department. His death came
10 days before his 66th birthday.[1]
