R.I.P : ISAAC HAYES


August 20, 1942 - August 10,2008
I can't say how much of a shock this weekend was...1st Bernie Mac left us and Today we Lose one of the sickest Composers/innovators of our time Isaac Hayes leaves us at the age 65 .. I have to say Issac Hayes is one of the main reasons i began Producing and Composing he gave us his soul through his music when the black community was oppressed and hopeless back in the 60s and 70s he created the Theme Music of the streets, growing up to his music since i was born through my pops countless collection of records,45s and 8 tracks (yeah 8 tracks) he inspired me to someday score films and to make elaborate hip hop compositions
his use of strings and hard drums and horns made a staple in the form of soul music - his sound was that of rhythm and blues classical funk - many Artist have sampled the works of Isaac Hayes as he embraced the Hip Hop Community and his sound will live on forever
Isaac Hayes thank you for giving us producers and artist the formula for creating Masterpieces
you'll be missed




Happy Bday in Advance you wouldve made 66
