Staralicious: Isaac Hayes Dies

  • Billy · 1 year ago
    I know Isaac Hayes for the voice of Chef on South Park, I also remember the soundtrack for Shaft. Yesterday Bernie Mac, now Isaac Hayes today. The random deaths are starting to get to close together if you ask me!

    Hello there!

    It is a shame that Isaac Hayes has passed away...and a day after black people all over the world were just bracing themselves after hearing about the passing of Bernie McCullough...

    At the height of his career, Isaac Hayes represented a different type of black masculinity. He had a lot of mystery about him. Many women found him to be extremely sexy, although he was not the "all-American pretty boy type"...

    I pray that he is resting with God. He was a legend who did not make his people ashamed with any scandals....

    Peace, blessings and DUNAMIS!

    I hope Mr. Hayes is with God too, but I object to the disproportionate way in which celebrities are greeted with sympathy compared to normal people. People die every day, people starve and people are murdered and they die of natural causes and how many people cry for them? A handful... if you're popular, maybe a dozen or two... why do celebs get such a response from the public?

    When times are rough, people forget about them, when times are good, throngs of people cheer, etc.

    It's all so... psychologically interesting.

    He was just a guy with musical talent. Lots of people who are unknown have musical talent, they will die in obscurity.

    Life sucks and then you die. I've lost so many people it isn't even funny, and you know what, it sucks, but that's life.
