August 10th, 2008, we lost another great Black entertainer, Isaac Hayes. A family member found him laying next to a treadmill and he was pronounced dead shortly after. He was 65.
Keeping up with the Huxtables would like to celebrate the life of Mr. Hayes, who was a singer, songwriter, and musician. He was most known for the "Theme from Shaft", which won an Academy and Grammy Award.
Isaac Hayes paved the way for many R&B singers and Rappers, also laying the ground work for disco.
Hayes most recently filmed a small role playing himself in the upcoming movie Soul Man, starring Bernie Mac, who we lost on Saturday. How ironic is that?
Keeping up asks you to take the time out to celebrate Hayes and his many accomplishments. Remember him for songs such as "Walk on By", "I wanna make love to you so bad", and "Do your thing".
