Chan got his start by enrolling in the TVB Dancers' Training Class in 1985. Soon after graduation, he joined a few of the studio's troupes that would accompany popular singers during their live performances. He worked with artists such as Alan Tam, Leslie Cheung, and Anita Mui before being invited by a producer to make a record of his own.
In 1994, he made his film debut with Twenty Something. Chan has since received several Hong Kong Film Award nominations: two for his role in He's a Woman, She's a Man (1994), and one each for Heaven Can't Wait (1995) and Big Bullet (1996). With 1996's Young and Dangerous, Chan established himself as a mainstay of the triad genre. The film was a huge success, and led to nine sequels and spinoffs before the series concluded in 2000. Chan starred as Kyouichi Sudo in Initial D.
Musically, Chan is known for bringing a hip hop flavor to cantopop. With his recent releases beginning around 2002, he has rapped and added hip hop beats to his music. His hip hop style has brought him new fans, although some Hong Kong fans have accused him of acting "black." He continues to incorporate r&b and hip hop sounds into his music today.

路是人走的 我害怕什么 大不了 别爱了
她像个天仙 她太美了 我那么平凡 我开不了口
心里面晓得 追她的结果 幸运的 不是我
唉
我没那种命呀 她没道理爱上我 英雄和美人呐 是一国的
只怪 爱人太少了 对手太好了 劝自己别傻了
以前甭提了 以后非加油不可
时间 越来越少了 越来越老了 我剩下一个梦
她走过来说 其实我错了 她爱我
她像个天仙 她太美了 我那么平凡 我开不了口
心里面晓得 追她的结果 幸运的 不是我
唉
我没那种命呀 她没道理爱上我 英雄和美人呐 是一国的
只怪 爱人太少了 对手太好了 劝自己别傻了
以前甭提了 以后非加油不可
我没那种命呀 轮也不会轮到我 爱情老是缺货 我争什么
时间 越来越少了 越来越老了 我剩下一个梦
她走过来说 其实我错了
唉
我没那种命呀 轮也不会轮到我 爱情老是缺货 我争什么
时间 越来越少了 越来越老了 我剩下一个梦
她走过来说 （其实你错了 我爱你）
陳小春's song Mei Na Zhong Ming is about unrequited love and the feeling of inadequacy that comes with it. The lyrics describe how love is irrational and some people are more desirable than others. The singer feels ordinary and unworthy of the beautiful woman he adores. He is afraid to express his feelings for her and assumes that he will never have a chance with her because he is not the lucky one who will win her heart.
Throughout the song, the singer resigns himself to the fact that he is not meant to be with this woman. He understands that he is not the hero that deserves the heroine and he is constantly reminding himself to move on. He believes that love is rare and he has no chance of competing with other men who are better suited for her. He acknowledges that time is running out and he only has one dream left.
Towards the end of the song, the woman approaches him and confesses that she loves him. This revelation surprises him and he is grateful for the unexpected turn of events. The final lines of the song suggest that the singer will now live happily ever after with his true love.
Overall, the lyrics of Mei Na Zhong Ming paint a picture of a man struggling with feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. He builds up the woman he loves in his mind, and convinces himself that he is not good enough for her. However, the song ends on a positive note as the woman chooses him despite his self-doubt.
