Cantante dotado por naturaleza, Joe Tex combinó las influencias colectivas del country, el gospel y la música soul para ser pionero y acaparar el mercado de un estilo que se conoció como "soul sureño". Nacido en Rogers, Texas, pero criado principalmente por su madre en Baytown, tocaba el saxo barítono en la banda del instituto y cantaba en el coro de la iglesia pentecostal local. Tras presentarse a varios concursos de talentos, ganó un viaje a Nueva York, donde compitió en los concursos de aficionados del famoso Teatro Apollo, lo que le valió un contrato de grabación -a los 19 años- con King Records, publicando varios temas sin notable éxito entre 1955 y 1957. Afirmó haber escrito la famosa canción Fever en este periodo, aunque oficialmente se atribuyó a Otis Blackwell y Joe Cooley; y la exitosa versión de Fever de Little Willie John le inspiró para escribir una réplica, titulada Pneumonia. La estrella de Tex, sin embargo, ascendió después de que James Brown grabara su canción Baby You're Right, mientras que su extrovertida actuación en el escenario le granjeó muchos admiradores y se dice que influyó mucho en Brown, con quien mantuvo una larga enemistad. Después de publicar más de 30 canciones sin gran éxito, finalmente obtuvo su primer éxito en 1966 con Hold On To What You've Got, al que siguieron I Want To (Do Everything For You), A Sweet Woman Like You, Skinny Legs And All y I Gotcha, con las que consiguió más éxitos de R&B que ningún otro artista. Se hizo musulmán en 1966 y se retiró de la música en 1972 para dedicarse a tiempo completo a la enseñanza del Islam. Sin embargo, regresó a finales de la década para hacer una nueva gira y grabar nuevos éxitos, como Under Your Powerful Love y Ain't Gonna Bump No More (With No Big Fat Woman), pero sufrió un infarto y murió en su casa de Texas en agosto de 1982, a los 47 años.
