Alicia Keys & Dimash sing at 8Wonder Winter 2025: when true artistic value reigns

Two powerful voices, top "live" icons come to Vietnam

If 8Wonder Winter 2025 taking place on December 6 at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (Dong Anh, Hanoi ) is considered a "symphony of stars", then the two voices of Alicia Keys and Dimash Kudaibergen are the strongest bass notes, representing the pinnacle of live performance art.

Alicia Keys is not only the owner of 17 Grammy gold statues but also praised as one of the most influential female artists of the past two decades. Her name is associated with classic ballads such as “Fallin'”, “No One”, “Girl on Fire” - songs that not only dominate the charts but also become healing melodies, companions to millions of people around the world .

What makes Alicia Keys special is not her skillful vocal technique or the number of awards she has won, but the “life” of her voice: every time she appears on stage, she turns every space into a symphony of real emotions, sometimes tender and melancholy, sometimes explosive and intense. For her, music is not just a product of the studio, but a living experience, where each verse is a personal story that touches the feelings of an entire generation.

Alicia Keys’ appearance on the Hanoi stage is not only a major milestone for Vietnam’s music scene, but also opens up a rare opportunity for audiences to directly experience the live voice that has captivated major music festivals around the world. This is also the first time Alicia Keys has performed in Vietnam – a special event, as she rarely appears in Asia, and this opportunity is unlikely to be repeated in the near future.

Dimash Kudaibergen – A rare “gem” of world music

If Alicia Keys is the representative of American soul and R&B, Dimash Kudaibergen is a global phenomenon from Kazakhstan, known as “the man with 6 octaves” - an almost unprecedented feat in contemporary music. Dimash once stunned the world with his ability to switch between nuances: from a powerful, romantic bass voice like a Russian ballad, to rare high notes, “beyond physical limits”.

What makes Dimash loved by millions of fans is not only his superb vocal skills, but also the way he uses his voice to tell stories, touching the hearts of audiences regardless of language and cultural differences. In his live performances, each of Dimash's performances is always an almost mesmerizing experience, where he can "paint with sound", sometimes gentle and deep, sometimes explosively dramatic.

Experts say that Dimash is a “hidden gem” of world music, possessing outstanding talent but rarely appearing in popular music markets like Vietnam. Therefore, the presence of both Alicia Keys and Dimash at 8Wonder Winter 2025 is an unprecedented event, marking a turning point that brings Vietnamese audiences directly to the icons of “real top voices” that the whole world recognizes: live is more emotional and excellent than the recording.

8Wonder makes a difference with artistic value

The appearance of Alicia Keys and Dimash at 8Wonder Winter 2025 not only guarantees the quality of the event organized by Vingroup, but also demonstrates a long-term vision: steadfastly bringing Vietnamese audiences authentic artistic experiences, contributing to improving their "taste".

In the context of a diverse entertainment market, 8Wonder chose a different direction: in addition to the world's top artists, the event also introduced outstanding talents, praised by the international community but not yet widely known in Vietnam. Inviting Dimash - an artist with rare vocal techniques is a clear demonstration of this strategy, emphasizing the "live" experience and real performance value for the audience.

This approach has transformed 8Wonder from a stage gathering “big names” into a bridge between the domestic audience and international standards of art appreciation. When talented singers are honored, when the quality of live performances becomes the key criteria, Vietnamese audiences will gradually get used to evaluating art not only by popularity, but also by the level and actual performance value.

The 8Wonder Winter stage is contributing to redefining listening habits: taking the public from listening to studio recordings to enjoying high-quality “live” performances, where every moment is not just a performance, but a cultural experience - an opportunity to share the same artistic beat with the world.
