- Shaft. The hit single that practically introduced many fans to badass funk; flashy, dynamic, and irresistible, and speaking of its era as clearly as any record could.
- Joy. Hey, ain’t that the Soul II Soul beat, more or less? Whole careers were built on this groove – and the celebration of physical love that is “Joy” is almost as long as a career.
- Breakthrough. Another killer rap break introduces this soundtrack thriller from Truck Turner, in which Ike plays a bounty hunter. A gritty tune that hits just as hard as his tough title character.

Isaac Hayes was a multi-talented composer, singer, and arranger who won an Oscar for the "Theme from Shaft" and voiced Chef on South Park. He also appeared in films like Escape from New York, The Duke, and Shaft, and died in 2008.
