Deputies with the Shelby County Sheriff's Department are continuing their investigation into Hayes' death, but they believe no foul play was involved.

Somebody get Undercover Brother in here. This is obviously a conspiracy, losing Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes right after each other, and Morgan Freeman still recovering. R.I.P.


We should probably go kill a couple white people for the next couple days to even things out though.

R.I.P Issac.

For those who only know him as Chef, check out Hot Buttered Soul,The Shaft Sountrack, The Isaac Hayes Movement. He is one of the best artists of the last century.

R.I.P. to a true music legend. The summer after I graduated high school me and some friends used to drink and play cards in our apartment and his song "Do Your Thing" was always on the play list.

Wow...just a horrible weekend in the entertainment world. Losing one of the great comedians, and then losing one of the greatest musicians who ever lived.

RIP Issac

I'd just like to let you know that you're a very ****ty gimmick. Please put more effort into your trolling. At least make it somewhat memorable or entertaining. What you're doing here is pure unadulterated garbage.

Name me a man who's got that booming voice like if Darth Vader had tone? RIP Hayes.

Thats a damn shame, more my mothers generation obviously (shes upset about the death), but I still appreciated his music and what he's done in his career.

Too many lives being cut short at once :(

Life has many faces, and it's ugly face has reared the last few days.

oh man, this is horrible news. 'walk on by' is truly one of my favourite tracks of all time. just the most epic, funky track i've ever heard. a true legend of the music industry, he will be missed for both his comedic acumen (for agreeing to do an underground show like south park) and musical genius.

RIP :cry:

no he really isn't. Do you really think that they could find another guy who looks exactly like paul , plays the bass left handed like paul , talks like paul etc. etc.

He is Chef from South Park, and one of the greatest black musician of all time.

I never watched south park but had no idea he played a character. Did he sound like himself as "Chef"? Was he cursing and stuff?

Chef was one of the best character on the Show, and Mr. Hayes appeared in 137 episodes in South Park.

This one hurts.

RIP to a true OG.

If you listen to RAP you've heard his tracks used over and over again.

The look of love has been sampled so many times somebody got a youtube video of all the times its been sampled.

True genius and legend.

interesting short interview (https://www.yahoo.com/music/isaac-hayes-didnt-quit-south-park-son-says-225624787.html) with his son.

if you remember all the ruckus when hayes quit south park because it had poked fun at scientology, apparently it was all kind of bogus... it wasn't actually of his own doing.

almost completely obvious in hindsight, but nice to have another confirmation that scientology is one of the most evil orgs in existence, and "evil" is a word i seldom throw around.

Who's the cat that won't cop out
When there's danger all about (Shaft!)
[Right on...]

But I'm talkin' about SHAFT!

i'm just getting started on it... pretty fascinating stuff, thanks!

hard to believe there was no primetime animated show other than the simpsons at that point. also kind of interesting in that simpsons season nine was pretty much the last great season, but then south park starts up right about that same year and the torch is safely passed.

hard to think of another show that combined such lowbrow humor with such cutting cultural commentary. if only the show had a spiritual successor of sorts... altho maybe there's something really good out there i'm unaware of. :S


EDIT: cool article. as long as it was, it still felt like it was just hitting the tip of the iceberg. i actually haven't watched the show in years, but behind-the-scenes stuff is always interesting to me.

i think my biggest quibble with the show is that trey and matt relied on their own voices too much. it makes every other character sound the same, so to speak. i get that they wanted to make the show as distinct from the simpsons as possible, and i get that the whole concept is 'two overgrown teenagers animating bits of paper in their garage, doing their own voiceovers'.

but still, voice work is clearly their worst skill by miles and probably hurts the show more than it helps by making it sound so monotone. they really could have used a couple simpsons / futurama-level people to give the show a little more depth.

still... pretty minor quibble in the scheme of things.


EDIT EDIT: guess i'll take this comment over to the main thread...
