"Lan Thuong Tien" - the debut MV of the group Mopius - received great expectations from the audience. However, the quality of the song is only average.
Jsol, Quang Hung, Duong Domic and Hurrykng joined forces to form the music group Mopius. With the appeal of 4 artists, from the echoes of the game show Anh trai say hi, the name Mopius immediately attracted attention. Product Priority lane also quickly appeared on the trending music list, attracting a huge amount of interaction.
The appearance of Mopius caused controversy, when the real group of Anh trai say hi, from the "brothers" with the highest rankings (except Quang Hung) were not able to debut, instead the lineup of Jsol, Quang Hung, Duong Domic and Hurrykng. In one year, the Vietnamese music market had 2 music groups born from game shows.
The group LUNAS from the show "Pretty Sister" was criticized because most of the members were not musically specialized. On the contrary, Mopius, in theory, has a comprehensive appearance and musical qualities among the members that can complement each other, so it is expected to shine.
Instant noodle song
With song Mopius focuses on the catchy and easy-to-understand elements for young audiences. The musical color of this song carries the spirit of a series of hits from Anh trai say hi, such as Ngao ngo. From the perspective of the band, Mopius reminds us of the color of the once-famous band One Direction.
The song is divided equally among the 4 members. With Pop music, mixed with a bit of Punk Pop, Priority lane meets the criteria of catching the ears of the majority of audiences from the first listen. The product's lyrics are also concisely developed, hitting straight into the story of a guy who wants to trade everything for a girl.
Still questionable Priority lane Is the product explosive and groundbreaking? The answer is no.
The formation of the group Mopius happened quickly after Anh trai say hi. Song Priority lane probably also completed in a hurry so that the 4 members could take advantage of the strong coverage period. In turn, Jsol, Quang Hung, Duong Domic and Hurry did his part and everything just went downhill.
The difference in a band's product - that is, the harmony and harmony - is not shown by Mopius in Priority lane . The overall song is like a patchwork of 4 segments by 4 artists, similar to a "land division" performance on a game show. As an independent, well-crafted music product labeled as a band, the audience demands more to carry the common spirit of Mopius.
Quang Hung is considered a rare highlight in the product. The male singer sings in the most beautiful range, on his forte type of beat (musical color), thus knowing how to create his own mark. On the contrary, Jsol is not suitable for this product. Hurrykng has to sing more than rap.
Mopius needed more time for the four members to blend together under the spirit of a band. This time, despite the somewhat old and superficial musical elements, Mopius was still protected because of the members' popularity.
What future for Mopius?
Mopius has truly marked the name of the next boy band in the Vietnamese music market. Previously, bands were formed with the initial idea that the members met and worked together from the "conception" stage, or were gathered by a management company.
The emergence of Mopius and LUNAS has made the music group genre suddenly popular again. Previously, the birth of a music group was considered a particularly difficult and time-consuming process. Now, looking at the cases of Mopius and LUNAS, the formation of a music group is no longer something difficult and unlikely.
The four members of Mopius all have their own managers and operate under the support of their own teams. When they joined Anh Trai Say Hi, they signed contracts to cooperate in commercial exploitation with a unit. This unit was the bridge in the middle to gather the four artists into Mopius and began to outline a strategy to "contribute rice to cook rice together", together creating new image and commercial values, parallel to the solo careers of all.
There are a number of questions about how Mopius will operate. Will the four artists put their solo careers on hold to focus on build band
With Mopius’ current state, it’s unlikely that the four artists will come together to form a serious group. Instead, similar to LUNAS, Mopius was created to be a collective brand for all. The artists will still focus on their individual schedules, and when the ideal time comes, they will come together as Mopius to hit bigger targets.
With MV Priority Lane and the initial effect of Mopius, the members who achieved their first success, was to resonate their names together to attract each other. At least, the Mopius effect created breathed new life into the market, about the future of the music group model.
Over the years, Vietnamese music groups, both male and female, have appeared regularly, but most of them have ended up not being able to go far. The flexibility in the way Mopius was established and operated could open up a new path for many other music groups to appear and find a way to survive.
