Cass Phang: Taking the High Road
Leading a quiet, married life, Cass (short for Cassapella) worked hard throughout her entire career to convince others that she is a singer, not an idol. Starting out in the record industry, Cass paved her destiny by making contacts and singing backup for singers such as Yuen Siu Cheung. Eventually, recording executives recognized her talent and Cass has been making albums since 1990, eventually collecting various best female artist awards. Cass's road to success wasn't always smooth. Even though she had great singles and a beautiful voice, she had trouble in the popularity department. Cass refused roles in movies and was hounded by the press by her plain looks. Changing record labels, Cass sought to revamp her image by adding a different song flavor to her repertoire - dance. The results of this change placed Cass on all No. 1 hit charts. Some of her albums afterwards achieved platinum status. Still, Cass wasn't satisfied. Wanting to go beyond her ability as a singer, Cass went on to produce several songs on her album, Water. Then she took her career further by producing albums for other artists. Letting her creative side flow, Cass composed her first single, "Old Homestead," from the album, Somewhere In Time. Above all else, nothing makes Cass as happy as when she takes the stage during a live event. It is within these moments, that the relaxed, carefree, and happy Cass Phang, lives one of her ultimate highs in life. She may not be an idol, but she is certainly an artist with great achievements.
