He is credited with popularizing Cantopop both via the infusion of Western-style music and his usage of vernacular Cantonese rather than written vernacular Chinese in biting lyrics that addressed contemporary problems and concerns.

As an actor, he is well-known for portraying the main character "King Kong" in five installments of Aces Go Places film series.
