Our Take

Isaac Hayes, the undisputed king of smooth, has returned with his latest opus, "Shaftin". This album is a glorious ode to the funky, soulful sounds of the 70s, with Hayes' signature deep voice and seductive grooves luring listeners in like a siren's call.

From the opening track, "Theme from Shaft", Hayes sets the tone for the entire album with its irresistible bassline and infectious funkiness. The title track, "Shaftin", is a masterclass in seduction, with Hayes' silky vocals effortlessly gliding over a lush bed of strings and horns.

But it's not all about love and lust on "Shaftin". Hayes also delves into more introspective territory on tracks like "Never Can Say Goodbye", where he reflects on lost love with a poignant vulnerability. And on "Do Your Thing", he encourages listeners to let loose and embrace their inner funkiness.

Overall, "Shaftin" is a triumphant return for Hayes, proving once again why he is a legend in the music industry. So grab your bell-bottoms and platform shoes, and get ready to groove to the smooth sounds of Isaac Hayes. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
