Isaac Hayes Dead At 65

Singer and songwriter Isaac Hayes died in his home in Memphis, TN on Sunday. The 65-year-old Shaft composer was found next a treadmill by a relative.

Hayes won an Oscar and a Grammy for the Shaft theme and in recent years, was known for his role as the voice of South Park's "Chef."

My favorite Isaac Hayes role? As "Hammer" in Keenan Ivory Wayans' I'm Gonna Git You Sucka.

Our thoughts and prayers to all 12 of his children, 14 grandchildren, and 3 great-grandchildren.
