He rose to fame in the early 1970s with a string of soul classics, including “Let’s Stay Together,” “Tired of Being Alone,” and “Love and Happiness.” His smooth falsetto and emotionally rich delivery made him a defining voice of Memphis soul, particularly through his collaboration with producer Willie Mitchell at Hi Records .

He later returned to secular music, balancing his roles as both a spiritual leader and a soul icon. Over his career, Green has sold more than 20 million albums and received numerous accolades, including 11 Grammy Awards, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall
