Trivia
His infamous roles as the dregs of society and sociopaths (Yi boh lai beng duk (1996) (Ebola Syndrome); Bat sin fan dim: Yan yuk cha siu bau (1993) (The Untold Story) ), trace their insights and sensibilities to a childhood of bullying because of his biracial appearance. Much of the frustration and pent-up emotions are intimately documented on his albums (1995, 2002.)He survived the abuse and discrimination, but was enough of a truant to graduate from high school at 21.
