Tung Duong firmly holds the "throne"
Returning to this year's Dedication Award, in the list of nominees for 10 categories, there are a total of 32 names, of which 21 are male artists and 11 are female artists.
Of the 21 male artists, six were honored, while only one female won the award.
The first name mentioned among the male artists honored by Cong Hien is Tung Duong.
The voice of Tai Sinh is a "monument" of the music industry and also a "monument" of Dedication.
According to statistics, during the 20 years since Cong Hien was born, Tung Duong has been nominated a total of 23 times for the award (up to this year's season) in different categories.
The fact that Tung Duong is continuously nominated or has the ability to win each time he is nominated is thanks to the outstanding features in his career and musical style.
This year alone, Tung Duong was nominated in 4 categories including Album of the Year (Multiverse), Show of the Year (Singing Man), Song of the Year (Rebirth) and Male Singer of the Year.
That shows that the past year 2024 can be considered a breakthrough milestone in Tung Duong's musical career and thereby shows the transformation in the male singer's musical style, thereby continuing to affirm his position as an artist who is constantly creative and persistent on the musical path.
Tung Duong was named in the Song of the Year category at this year's Dedication, thereby maintaining his "throne" on the "overall ranking" of the Dedication Cup that the male singer has won 14 times.
The song Rebirth (composed by Tang Duy Tan) performed by Tung Duong is structured as a musical journey that gradually moves from calm, rustic melodies to dramatic peaks.
Tung Duong's voice, although bearing the success of an experienced artist, through Rebirth, we can see that he still retains his youthfulness, closeness and approachability, creating a strong connection with listeners.
The live version as well as the audio version of Rebirth have achieved impressive views and listens on YouTube and other digital platforms, affirming the appeal of the product and showing that Tung Duong's voice is no longer "picky about listeners" as before.
It can be said that Tung Duong's contributions to music have been and are creating motivation and paving the way for young artists to dare to be creative and express their personal identity in a competitive music industry.
It is his breakthrough, innovative spirit and lasting contributions that have helped shape a unique look for popular music, contributing to raising the value of art in the community.
If Tung Duong had a hat-trick in the 16th Dedication season in 2021 in 3 important categories: Singer of the Year, Album of the Year (Human) and Program of the Year (Human), then in this year's season, Soobin also repeated the achievement of his senior singer when he won the "treble" of Dedication cups in 3 categories he was nominated for including: Album of the Year (Turn it up), Music Video of the Year (If Only) and Male Singer of the Year.
In 2024, Soobin affirmed his position with a series of breakthrough music products and elaborate artistic activities, thereby contributing to reshaping the style and renovating the Vietnamese popular music life.
Participating in Anh trai vu ngan cong gai, Soobin is considered a prominent factor when he created a good media effect, with most of his performances quickly becoming popular on social networking platforms.
Yet, Soobin's debut album Turn It Up is a living testament to his more than decade-long artistic journey, with unique creativity that combines intimate lyrics and modern melodies.
The meticulous investment in the production process and the standard sound quality of the album have received a warm welcome from both experts and audiences, affirming Soobin's enduring appeal in the modern music market.
Besides, the MV "If Only" successfully exploited the theme of nostalgia and unfulfilled love, bringing a romantic story full of beautiful memories mixed with a bit of regret.
Each frame in the MV is meticulously invested, from filming to post-production, bringing a colorful and unique visual experience, clearly demonstrating Soobin's artistic perspective and sophistication in storytelling.
In general, with outstanding achievements through products and artistic activities, Soobin has both created a new wave in music and built a loyal fan community.
The ability to connect emotions and convey musical messages through a unique personal style will certainly open up new directions for Soobin in the future.
And the joy seemed to multiply for Soobin when in the category of Program Series of the Year, Dedication 19-2025 called the Live concert Anh trai van ngan cong gai.
Not only that, the music director of Anh trai vu ngan cong gai SlimV and "brother" Quoc Thien - a fan of Soobin - were also honored in the categories of Producer of the Year and Program of the Year.
