MEMPHIS, TN (WMC-TV) - Musician Isaac Hayes died early Sunday morning, according to Shelby County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Steve Shular.

A Shelby County sheriff's deputy responded to Hayes' home after his wife found him on the floor near a treadmill inside his home.

Hayes was taken to Baptist East Hospital in Memphis, where he was pronounced dead at 2:08am.

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

I just heard this while at my sister's house holding my new nephew.
In that moment you really understand the cycle of life and death.

RIP

Wow, this Bro., his music and his big, black, PRESENCE, meant so much to our people. Black Moses. His famous poster, shirtless and in chains, came to symbolize our oppression, and was everywhere all over the kkkountry. His voice and music like the hot, buttered soul he represented.

It makes me sick to see that the most he is being remembered for is that south park mess, but we know our oppressor damn sure ain't gonna paint the picture of the strong Afrikan that motivated so many of us to stand up a little straighter and walk with more authority as a result of being exposed to his image and was the originator of an entire sound.

you are so right! i was watchin the spanish news the next day and the first thing they showed even before his own images was the southpark guy singin!! I was like wtf?? (I didnt even know he was doing this). i thought it was quite stupid and disrespectfull, althought the surprising of it was his death actually having 3-4 minutes of the news.
