Double2T told Tuoi Tre Online that when participating in the Rap Viet contest, he will use his prize money to contribute to bringing electricity to the highlands, including his hometown.
“The Steal the Sun campaign is the opportunity for me to realize this dream. This campaign is organized by Tu Thien That with the aim of bringing solar power to remote, mountainous and poor villages without electricity. I am the first ambassador of Steal the Sun ” - Double2T shared.
Use prize money to bring electricity back to the village
Talking about the reason for joining the Steal the Sun campaign, Double2T shared: “I was born and raised in a place without electricity. I hope that when I succeed, I can help children in the highlands have a better life.
I knew about Stealing the Sun before competing in Rap Viet and was a volunteer.”
The campaign's message is "Steal the sun to bring electricity everywhere".
The first location to deploy is Khuon Kat village (Tuyen Quang province) - where people live deep in the mountains and forests, with difficult travel and far from the national power grid.
All activities here must be suspended when night falls.
Ban Khuon Kat is also the hometown of rapper Double2T.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Trung - founder of Tu Thien That - said that in the village there are more than 11 households without electricity. The reason is that the road to the village is very difficult, so it is not possible to bring the electricity grid all the way there.
Accordingly, each household here will be installed with solar panels to accumulate electricity for use when it is dark.
This project is expected to be completed in February 2024.

Spread the campaign Steal the Sun , light up everywhere
To spread the campaign Steal the Sun , the crew thought of making a music video about the campaign.
That's why volunteer Cao Thanh Thao My wrote the song "Stealing the Sun" 3 years ago. However, she hasn't had the chance to perform it yet.
It wasn't until he met volunteer Bui Xuan Truong (stage name Double2T) that the rap part of the song was completed.
“Double2T said he was born and raised in the mountains and in a place without electricity, let him try to write the rap part.
When I received the demo, I knew this was the person I had been looking for all along. Double2T was like the key to launching this special campaign of Tu Thien That" - Nguyen Thanh Trung said.

Accordingly, part 1 of the song Stealing the Sun is about the life of a child born and raised without electricity, which is also the life of Double2T.
Part 2 of Stealing the Sun is the spread of the community, of people with influence on society so that everyone can join hands to light up the dreams of children in the highlands.

As the ambassador of the Steal the Sun campaign, Double2T took on the role of composing the rap and spreading the campaign to everyone through music.
“I will accompany the campaign long-term through performance and installation events in highland villages.
When I have time to participate, I want to go there to feel the happiness of the people when they have electricity" - Double2T committed.
