Jalacy J. Hawkins' wild songs and onstage theatrics of his self-created brand of voodoo jive earned him the name Screamin' Jay Hawkins. His act has often featured him emerging from a casket to sing his best-known hit, "I put a spell on you" (1956), carrying a skull smoking a cigarette (you know smoking's bad for you, look at Henry...). Other novelties, ranging from "Feast of the Mau Maus" to "Constipation blues" (1967), may have stereotyped his talent, but on the other hand, his idiosyncracies have brought him TV and movie appearances that would have eluded him had he played his music straight. Regardless of style, Hawkins's recordings still display a remarkable voice, which would have been used for opera had Screamin' Jay had his way.

His first movie role in the 1957 movie Mr. Rock'n'Roll was never shown. His song "I put a spell on you" starred in the Jim Jarmusch movie Stranger than Paradise (1983), the man himself played in the movie Mystery train by the same director.

Sweet Daddy Hawk died on 12 February 2000 at the age of 70.
