Candy Lo is a Canto-rock singer-songwriter and actress from Hong Kong. She has released 9 studio albums, over 40 singles, 2 compilations, 1 live album and 1 EP with Sony Music to date. On June 11 she released her first EP on her new label WOW Music. In 1998 Candy Lo was signed to Sony Music, thereby starting her solo career. Her first release under Sony was an EP called Bat Seui Yiu...Yun Mei Dak Ho Pa; Unnecessary To Want...Perfect Can Be Terrible). For this record she won a Golden Award in the same year. The style of this release continued on from her Canto-rock past with Black & Blue.
In winter 1998, Candy released a second record called Miao, the title of which refers to Candy's love of cats and how "they listen while people sometimes don't." The album did not sell as much copies as expected. Producer Kubert Leung blamed the public, who "failed to grasp the concept of the album". Lo's third album, Tip Gan Lou Haau Yam, released in 1999, set itself apart from the mainstream music that year by adding a philharmonic orchestra to her mix of rock and pop. In 2000 Candy Lo again released 2 records, Sik Fong and Muse. In 2000, Candy started acting by playing a minor role in the drama What is a Good Teacher directed by Hong Kong actor and director Francis Ng.
Later that year she was nominated three times for a Hong Kong Film Award (HKFA) for her role in Time and Tide (directed by Tsui Hark) and Twelve Nights. In 2002, Lo played a pregnant advertising executive named "Godzilla" in If You Care... and in the same year as Kung Fu fighter in Yuen Biao's No Problem 2, a collaboration between Hong Kong and Japan. That year, she also appeared in The Eye, a horror movie directed by The Pang Brothers which was also released in the United Kingdom and the United States.
