Since the beginning of his career, HIEUTHUHAI did not resemble a rapper in appearance or style. Rappers are usually rough and tough, while HIEUTHUHAI is sleek and a playboy.
But HIEUTHUHAI seems less and less like a rapper.
Instead, HIEUTHUHAI is looking more like a singer or entertainment star. In the latest MV Crocodile tears Released on the evening of April 1st, HIEUTHUHAI from the King of Rap era is no longer recognizable. Play good Crab .
In fact, from Can't get drunk Debuting 2 years ago, HIEUTHUHAI has sung a lot and rapping only plays a supporting role in his music products.
HIEUTHUHAI is still hot
Can't get drunk reached 47 million listens on Spotify and 51 million MV views - numbers high enough to prove that HIEUTHUHAI is on the right track. With the release Crocodile Tears , HIEUTHUHAI clearly shows his determination with the path he has chosen, even though throughout the past time, this rapper has faced countless doubts and debates about his ability.
On March 28, HIEUTHUHAI posted a polaroid photo with the caption: "In the end, it was all lies... or deception", causing fans to speculate about a new product. That evening, he promised to "release" a new MV at 8:00 p.m. on March 29. But, at the appointed time, instead of an MV, fans only received a status from this rapper: "Now do you understand what it feels like to be trapped?". It turns out, there is no MV yet, what is for fans is just a "trick".
In addition to being a smart and effective communication strategy at a time when the entire online community is caught up in drama, HIEUTHUHAI's approach also reflects the message of Crocodile tears - The song is about a love full of lies.
At exactly 8:00 p.m. on April 1, HIEUTHUHAI turned the joke into reality when releasing the MV Crocodile Tears . At its peak, HIEUTHUHAI's MV had 70,000 viewers watching its premiere.
After an hour of release, Crocodile tears reached 68,000 views, and climbed to 7th place in the trending music category. In the next hour, this product rose to 4th place, directly threatening the rankings of Kai Dinh, Soobin or Hoa Minzy. HIEUTHUHAI is indeed very hot.
From the time he appeared on King of Rap until now, HIEUTHUHAI's career has only gone straight up. After Anh trai "say hi", the singer born in 1999 almost jumped to a new position. With his current reputation and fan base that is probably among the top among Vietnamese singers, HIEUTHUHAI can hardly fail, at least in Crocodile tears
Weaknesses
Crocodile tears is the first official product of HIEUTHUHAI after the phenomenon Anh trai "say hi" so the public's expectations for him are certainly high. Before that, this rapper had a rap Presentation also climbed to the top 1 trending but it was a rap diss track, not a music product that was invested in and planned for proper promotion.
With Crocodile Tears , HIEUTHUHAI sings more than raps. Entering the vocal field - a field where HIEUTHUHAI is still doubted and controversial, this rapper is quite reckless.
Indeed, in Crocodile tears , HIEUTHUHAI's vocal weakness still exists and has not improved much compared to the time of "say hi" brother or Can't get drunk . HIEUTHUHAI's dry voice, lacking in power and emotion, once again made the audience exclaim that he should focus on rapping.
Music and lyrics by Crocodile tears also disappointed because it was old, carrying the color of love songs from the peak of the Blue Wave in the early 2000s. This time back, HIEUTHUHAI continued to work with his familiar and close collaborator Kewtiie. The overall melody is easy to listen to, catchy with a catchy chorus but stops at a safe level.
“It sounds like songs from the 9X era, it's a bit bland. I was really looking forward to it but after listening to it, I was disappointed”, “The melody of this song is very familiar, like old music”, “The melody is like old pop songs, more than 10 years ago”, "This song is quite catchy but not new", the audience commented on the song.
Meanwhile, the visual part is done in a futuristic style, combined with choreography with the participation of Emma Le (top 5 Miss Universe Vietnam 2023).
HIEUTHUHAI has a very different position after "say hi" brother, so with that comes great expectations and hopes. But with what is shown in Crocodile tears , HIEUTHUHAI missed a good opportunity to prove himself.
Of course, with his current popularity, HIEUTHUHAI will still achieve a large number of views, listens and achievements that are difficult for anyone to achieve. However, the doubts and controversies that have surrounded him for many years will be difficult to end when what HIEUTHUHAI brings this time is not really explosive and impressive as expected.
