"I don't know what to say anymore, I just have to cry 300000000000000000000 times. Please allow me" - (S) TRONG wrote on Threads when sharing information that the song Kho Bau has reached the top 1 Vietnamese Songs of Billboard Vietnam this week, dethroning Phiep Mieu.

SlimV, Rhymastic, Toc Tien, Do Hoang Hiep... congratulate Trong Hieu. (S)TRONG also announced on the evening of August 14 that he will release 3 new versions of Kho Bau with Rhymastic, Tuimi and NICKY.

Powerful level up treasure

Kho Bau is the next song to join the Vietnamese music trend of using nostalgic materials. Before that, there were songs like Cay (Khac Hung, Jimmii Nguyen), Crocodile Tears (HIEUTHUHAI) or Mien Mong Mi (AMEE, tlinh).

This time, (S) TRONG did not choose vibrant electronic music, which is the element that helps to highlight his performance strengths. Instead, he brought the audience into a nostalgic and gentle sound space.

The restraint in vocal effects processing helps Kho Bau bring a modern feel without losing its nostalgia, sounding "old but not outdated".

Trong Hieu has a big hit after 10 years of career

For a long time, throughout his 10-year career, (S)TRONG - Trong Hieu has been recognized by many audiences as a multi-talented artist with both voice, appearance and performance ability. However, there is still a lack of hits to bring him closer to the audience. Treasure is probably the beginning.
