'Silly Ut' Negav is no longer silly

Negav said he is looking forward to the performance day and meeting everyone. "I will bring to the show familiar, cheerful songs like Catch me if you can , or more personal songs like Just me ... so that everyone can sing along," he said.

Baby youngest member of team GERDNANG

Negav's real name is Dang Thanh An, born in 2001, and has been writing rap since middle school. In 2022, he joined the GERDNANG team, opening a new journey in his career.

Negav has become famous since participating in the show Brilliant Journey. In this game show , Negav has a cute new name, Ut Kho.

At that time, the audience loved the adorable baby face, the babyish appearance and the innocent yet sweet way of speaking of rookie Negav.

But it wasn't until he joined Say Hi Brother that he really shined.

Negav brings a "salty" entertainment element to the show but is serious in his musical products.

The songs featuring Negav always create a buzz and rank high in YouTube's trending list: Catch me if you can, Minute and Hour Kim, The Foolish Water Palace...

Negav is not an excellent singer or rapper. However, his popularity is not inferior to anyone. Currently, his fanpage has 22,000 followers, and YouTube has 372,000 subscribers.

The song "Only You", which was scheduled to be sung at the Cashless Day Festival of Tuoi Tre newspaper, was released 9 months ago on YouTube and has so far reached 13 million views and over 100,000 comments.

Negav is getting more and more quiet.

Nearly a month after this song was released, Negav "stumbled" quite painfully.

During the first concert of Say Hi Brother in Ho Chi Minh City, Negav accidentally said: "Do you think it's right for me to take a day off from school?"

This question is only suitable for family, but it was said in the middle of the crowd, causing a misunderstanding that Negav was advocating for dropping out of school. After that, the online community brought up many stories about Negav's past. Honestly, it wasn't very nice.

Negav apologized and chose to remain silent. He has remained silent to this day.

Negav shared: "Compared to before, my life has changed significantly. I have become more quiet. I am no longer as boisterous and noisy as before. I have truly learned to think more and become more mature."

"During difficult days, I was truly grateful to the fans who were always by my side. I realized my mistakes and tried to stand up thanks to their support," he said.

He also believes that his life now is closely linked to music. "I make music at night, so I wake up a little late in the morning and go to the gym. When I feel inspired, I write music. I have a group of friends. In the afternoon, we often meet to talk about life and ask each other if they are having a good time. At night, I return to music."

"I try to maintain a healthier lifestyle, go out less, take care of myself so I can do everything in life.

My upcoming plans are simple, just focus on music and release more albums.

I realized that at my core I am an artist, a rapper, so I need to focus more on releasing more songs and those songs must attract the attention of the audience," Negav said.

Then he said: "Negav's fans have two groups. One is very young and the other is middle-aged and older people. So I also hope everyone stays healthy, lives healthily and loves themselves."

"I'm a bit careless with my calculations, forgetful, and often drop money. Knowing this weakness, I chose to pay cashless many years ago.

I use it everywhere I go, like eating and shopping. Very convenient. Bank cards are popular and safe" - rapper Negav shared.
