Taste the beating, know the suffering and love yourself

He then introduced the EP called Science , consisting of 6 songs. He described the product as the science of emotions, each song is a “subject”, a state of life.

Singer Pham Anh Khoa returns.

Pham Anh Khoa said he wanted to come back with a new look and image, redefining himself. After twenty years in the profession, sometimes the singer wonders what he really likes. Now, he has found the answer.

Time gave Pham Anh Khoa much to ponder. Sometimes, he chose silence not to retreat, but to listen clearly to the voice from within.

"I am proud of the masculinity in my music. At 40, I am mature enough, so I sing about love more deeply. My luggage is the pain and happiness to convey to listeners," he told VietNamNet .

Over the years, audiences have labeled Pham Anh Khoa as wild and instinctive. The singer admits that those things still exist in him now, still screaming sometimes.

He used to ask himself if being wild brought joy and any benefits. When he had children, this concern for him increased, forcing him to change and improve himself.

To have a Pham Anh Khoa version Soft, calm, the singer has gone through a period of being beaten to a pulp, knowing suffering and loving herself.

At his lowest point, he pulled himself together and allowed his thoughts to stop torturing himself, because it didn't solve anything.

The male singer once felt stuck, admitting that there was a time when he felt like he was "falling into an abyss".

"I realized my helplessness from the moment my little daughter came to me with a towel, comforting me like a friend. At that moment, I felt weaker than ever. As a father, letting a child comfort me was really 'done'," he said.

However, Pham Anh Khoa believes that men do not have the right to cry or be weak. He still lives honestly, instead of having to force himself to the point of exhaustion.

He feels happy because he is on the path that he should have taken a long time ago. Before, the singer used to wonder why these things happened, but now he has learned to accept it, seeing it as “beneficial” instead of “miserable”.

An energetic and open-minded person like you, what will it be like when you face yourself? Pham Anh Khoa said he fears that moment the most in life.

The period when a singer has to sit still the most is when he has to practice in a temple. At that time, he works unconsciously, facing a spiritual void.

Every day, he helps paint the walls in the temple. As he applies a new coat of paint to the old wall, the male singer thinks to himself how wonderful it would be if people could have their lives redone.

When meeting Zen masters and passing through temples, Pham Anh Khoa gradually found a sense of peace and inspiration for his career.

Music also has the breath of life and luckily he found it again.

Owing to his wife, he promised to be a good husband and father.

Many years after the scandal, Pham Anh Khoa said he is still afraid of public opinion. Male singer afraid of the feeling of being in the center of things without knowing what to do, how to handle it. In the art field, the crowd is a part directly related to the work.

"In football, no one condemns the referee, public opinion is like the referee. Instead of just complaining and blaming, I think we should cooperate with it better, behave and act according to standards both in our career and in life," he expressed.

Pham Anh Khoa was advised by many people to stay awake and find a protective shield to at least avoid getting caught up in old disasters and scandals.

However, the singer believes that everything that happens in life cannot be learned and applied mechanically. The nature of each story is different, so the way of behaving is also different.

When I was young, I said what I thought and acted on instinct, but now I consider a lot.

Pham Anh Khoa said he "owed gratitude" to his wife.

Pham Anh Khoa got married early, at the age of 21. Although the marriage was rushed, he feels lucky to have chosen the right person.

"When the incident happened, I just turned off my phone and went to the temple. I didn't know what to do. My wife was the only one who took the beating. I owe my wife a lot," he said.

Pham Anh Khoa promised to spend the rest of his life trying to repay what his wife had done for him. He studied little by little, loved his wife and raised their two children.

Even though things have not gone anywhere yet, he has a little joy because his family is comfortable and his children are starting to grow up and understand things.

In the family, the singer's wife has always been in charge of the finances and work. She is both his manager and takes care of many people's work.

The singer joked that no one is more difficult than his wife. In his songs, his wife scrutinizes every word, from lip-syncing to pronunciation, melody… Occasionally, his wife still loses patience and gets angry with him frequently.

Currently, Pham Anh Khoa emphasizes the sense of responsibility of a man in the family more. For him, from awareness to behavior is a short step, the important thing is to maintain perseverance and regularity to carry it out.

"Maybe it will take me 10-20 years to dare to say that, but right now I cannot confirm that I am good and successful. Sometimes my mind is very absent-minded, my wife often reminds me and nags me all the time," the male singer expressed.
