Sing for the community and the youth.

From the places he's been and the people he's met, singer Minh Sang has sensed the burning ideals and immense energy of today's young Vietnamese people. It is this energy that has driven him to undertake the "Vietnamese Youth" project.

Singer Minh Sang collaborates with Meritorious Artist Vo Minh Lam to incorporate Cai Luong (Vietnamese traditional opera) into the marching song "Shining with the Youthful Spirit of Vietnam".

Honoring the precious heritage of traditional Vietnamese music .

From October 2025 to January 2026, singer Minh Sang will release four songs in succession: "Brilliant Youthful Energy of Vietnam," "Vietnam Forever Moving Forward," "Writing the Spring of the Future," and "Vietnam in a New Spring," as part of the "Vietnamese Youth" project. Notably, this is the first time in motivational music products for young people that the influence of Cai Luong (Vietnamese traditional opera) or the "proclamation-reading" style has been incorporated. This unique and creative highlight defines Minh Sang's musical style in his current journey: developing youthful and fresh motivational songs while still exploring and introducing the essence of Vietnamese traditional music to today's audience.

With the song "Shining with the Youthful Spirit of Vietnam" (composed by young musician Phuoc Nguyen), singer Minh Sang collaborates with Meritorious Artist Vo Minh Lam to bring music closer to the patriotic spirit and positive energy of youth. The song has a powerful, modern melody while retaining the heroic narrative quality – a characteristic of traditional youth music. The blend of singer Minh Sang's modern voice and the expressive Cai Luong style of Meritorious Artist Vo Minh Lam creates a fresh sound, evoking the spirit of "national unity" – where tradition and innovation coexist in a youthful, enduring Vietnamese identity.

In the song "Vietnam Forever Progressing Forward" (composed by young musician Minh Son), Minh Sang chose to incorporate a form unfamiliar to today's young audience: "reading a proclamation." Minh Sang said that he initially intended to combine it with rap but felt it wasn't fresh enough to match the project's spirit, so he invited People's Artist Huu Quoc to join him. People's Artist Huu Quoc's reading of the proclamation truly touched the listeners' emotions.

Inspiring life and dedication through music.

The "Vietnamese Youth" motivational music project marks singer Minh Sang's enduring journey in music – a path that is unpretentious but always moving forward. Starting from the Ho Chi Minh City Conservatory of Music and participating in the 2007 Voice of the People of Ho Chi Minh City Radio Singing Contest, the Ho Chi Minh City Television Singing Star Contest, The Voice Vietnam, X-Factor, The Storyteller of Love, Shining Stars, etc., Minh Sang has gradually built his own unique position in the music industry. Even when he experienced setbacks, he never gave up.

The journey of bringing his singing to the community, singing about his homeland and country, is a choice and a turning point for Minh Sang after a period of focused experimentation and creativity. Singer Minh Sang shared that his dedication to pursuing music that is encouraging, idealistic, and inspiring – like the generations of artists before him who created marching songs that urged people to cross the Trường Sơn mountain range during wartime, or melodies that ignited the spirit of volunteer summer camps over the years – reflects the spirit, enthusiasm, belief, and aspirations of today's youth to dedicate themselves to the community, society, homeland, and country. To gain more creative material, Minh Sang studied, read, and researched materials related to traditional Vietnamese music as well as the musical styles of young people. As his songs were released, he further defined his position in the genre of music praising his homeland, country, and the ideals of youth.

Through his collaboration with the Ho Chi Minh City Center for Arts and the Ho Chi Minh City Artists Volunteer Team, Minh Sang has brought his singing voice to all corners of the country, performing for soldiers and officers in remote areas, border regions, and islands… “The pride and gratitude from these trips motivate me to try to contribute a small part of my voice to honor the soldiers of yesterday and today. I believe that music praising love for the country and the aspirations of young people to contribute will always have a place if the artist is sincere and serious. Young audiences can absolutely embrace these songs if we know how to present them in a fresh and attractive way,” said singer Minh Sang.

People's Artist Huu Quoc commented on singer Minh Sang: "He is a young singer with a friendly demeanor towards colleagues and is also extremely serious about recording and performing. Even more valuable, despite being a young singer, Minh Sang is passionate about choosing motivational music, focusing on national spirit, and consciously combining it with valuable traditions to preserve and spread them to today's young generation."
