Isaac Hayes left a musical legacy that encompasses much more than his iconic theme from Shaft, but he might have attained more mainstream fame with the younger generation in his role as Chef on South Park. Though Hayes left the show acrimoniously over the Scientology-baiting “Trapped in the Closet” episode and his character was later played as an unwitting dupe to a sinister organization, show creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are offering a simple “In Memoriam” tribute to Hayes on their website. Hayes appeared on South Park from 1998 to 2006 as well as the 1999 film South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut. [South Park]
