Professional career brings Minh Thuan’s name closer to the public

Minh Thuan and Nhat Hao’s album “Beijin Boy” created a fever in the youth music industry at that time and it was also a springboard to bring this duo to the peak of their career.
This was also the time when the Vietnamese youth music market was heavily influenced by Chinese musical songs. Chinese songs converted into Vietnamese lyrics with beautiful lyrics and elaborate melodies have won the hearts of many audiences. |
And of course, the names Minh Thuan and Nhat Hao are always the guarantee of the most successful music videos of the moment.
In 1996, the couple went solo, which made fans regret it. It is also a difficult time for the name Minh Thuan because a new class of artists is developing, diverse and full of newness.
Names like Phuong Thanh, Lam Truong, My Tam, Dan Truong were the dominant names at that time.
Despite this, singer Minh Thuan still refuses to be inferior to his younger generations. He always tries to innovate himself, to change his style and music.
Through fresh thinking and in-depth knowledge of the music market, Minh Thuan has always managed to generate revenue.

He has the talent to make the audience laugh and cry.
A talented but unhappy artist
Someone once said: “Minh Thuan’s whole life, all his love was for art, never selfish for himself. »
It’s true, in the stories shared by Minh Thuan, there were only artistic projects and concerns for colleagues. Yet when he breathed his last, there were still too many unfinished projects.
The multi-talented male artist said goodbye to this world on September 18, 2016 at Pham Ngoc Thach Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City due to lung cancer, leaving many regrets to his colleagues and fans. |
And perhaps it is his colleagues’ feelings towards him that give us a complete picture of Minh Thuan. Even when the aura of the stage has ceased to cover him, he still shines with his talent and his good heart.
