After 3 days of release, Bac Bling has reached 10 million views (and by the morning of March 5, it had surpassed 11 million views) on YouTube.

Bac Bling is still being listened to and shared at a dizzying speed.

Impressive achievement of "Bac Bling" after 3 days of release.

This is the first time Xuan Hinh has tried rapping on modern music in a MV like Bac Bling. The cheo artist, known as the "king of comedy in the North", shared: "I didn't practice anything before. In about 50 years of working in the profession, I have rapped. Traditional arts such as cheo singing, quan ho singing, chau van singing... also have ways of rhyming and vibrato following the rhythm like rap, so there is no difficulty."

The 65-year-old artist said he agreed to participate in Hoa Minzy's MV because he saw her dedication and meticulousness in building a cultural product for her homeland, so he was very supportive. "You guys have bravely chosen a path that is not easy. That is to preserve the soul of national culture, while at the same time breathing into it a contemporary breath to conquer the youth. That precious heart makes me want to contribute a part to this project," said artist Xuan Hinh.

Comedian Xuan Hinh attracted attention when he rapped extremely coolly in Hoa Minzy's MV.

Hoa Minzy also just revealed for the first time the message that convinced comedian Xuan Hinh to participate in her MV Bac Bling . "The first message and the beginning of Uncle Xuan Hinh's great contribution to my project... After nearly 2 hours of talking and sharing about the project and life, perhaps he saw my passion for the profession, my heart for my homeland and my determination for this project, so he agreed to join me in bringing the cultural identity of Kinh Bac to the audience," she shared.

Not only comedian Xuan Hinh but also 300 people from Lac Xa, Que Tan, Que Vo (Bac Ninh) agreed to participate in Hoa Minzy's MV Bac Bling because they saw her precious heart for her homeland. Therefore, all of them did not receive any salary. Instead, they received small gifts such as a bottle of fish sauce, a bag of seasoning powder, a pair of sandals and a very small red envelope as a thank you from the female singer. "For the people of my hometown, that is a great spiritual contribution that cannot be measured in material terms," said Hoa Minzy.

Answering VietNamNet's question about why Hoa Minzy invited her neighbors to act in the MV but her parents and siblings did not appear in Bac Bling, the female singer said that her relatives were behind the camera and supported Hoa Minzy because they were the ones who understood her best. "If my parents also came to film, who would take care of me when I was hungry? When I was filming and looked far away, I always had the silhouettes of my parents and relatives, I felt much more confident and filmed better," the female singer said.
