News: Isaac Hayes Passes Away At The Age of 65



It is with a heavy heart that I report that one of the biggest musical icons of this century has passed away. Singer, song writer and actor Isaac Hayes was found unresponsive near a treadmill in his Memphis home by a family member on Sunday. An hour later Hayes was pronounced dead at Baptist East hospital. This tremendous loss comes only a day after legendary Comic Bernie Mac passed away at the age of 50 due to complications from pneumonia. Both men made huge contributions to their respective industries and had a profound impact on the way I view both contemporary urban music and comedy. They leave behind families and huge voids.
