Black Moses is the fifth studio album by American soul musician Isaac Hayes. It is a double album released on Stax Records' Enterprise label in 1971. The follow-up to Hayes' successful soundtrack for Shaft, Black Moses features Hayes' version of the Jackson 5's hit single "Never Can Say Goodbye". Hayes' version became a hit in its own right, peaking at number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album reached number one on the Billboard R&B album chart on January 15, 1972. Ike's Rap II became a popular track to sample, most notably by Portishead in their song "Glory Box"; other artists who have also sampled the track include Tricky, Alessia Cara, Snoh Aalegra, and Racionais MC's.
