Who's the black private dick
That's a sex machine to all the chicks?
Shaft, ya, damn right
Who is the man that would risk his neck
For his brother man?
Shaft, can you dig it?
Who's the cat that won't cop out
When there's danger all about?
Shaft, right on
They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother
Shut your mouth
But I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft
Then we can dig it
He's a complicated man
But no one understands him but his woman
John Shaft
Performed this with a college acaplla group live ( just once as it took a long time to learn and get good). The long instrumental intro... thre crowd was completely silent because most didn't know it in the late 90s. One guy in the back of the concert hall just started screaming. Yes! Yes! Yeaaah!
Saw Shaft for the first time as a teenager. It was great in the 90s, still holds up today
Here's one to Richard Roundtree. 🥂🥂
Aw, I don't dig it
✊
Dude was a icon of singularity. Rare is it to have such an affect on your chosen profession. Forever much respect. His movies hold up to time and are full of so much influence. I am glad he lived a long life. Dude will forever be an icon of bad assery!
