Bustling Vietnamese Rap, MCK is the most paradoxical

Vietnamese rap world from Wrxdie, Lil Wuyn, Low G, tlinh, Dangrangto, Andree Right Hand to The Wind... Each artist pursues a separate direction, contributing to enriching the market, while showing that the community is not lacking in excitement.

Many new products

This September, Vietnamese rap audiences continuously received many diverse products. On September 13, Wrxdie collaborated with Lil Wuyn to release the MV like that

This is a rap song with a modern trap spirit, catchy melody, liberal lyrics, quickly shared widely by the underground community. The MV not only marks the combination of two young personalities but also shows the effort to expand the mass audience.

On September 9, Andree Right Hand appeared in Company 4 together Dangrangto, TeuYungBoy and WOKEUP.

The product combines Andree's OG experience with the youthful energy of his juniors, carrying the spirit of "making music as well as doing business".

With a street rap-influenced beat, the rap is considered a continuation of a series of regular collaborations in the rap community.

Not stopping at singles, on September 13, The Wind officially released the album So Many includes many diverse tracks, from drill to trap, showing an effort to assert his own personality. This is a big step forward for a rapper who originally came from underground, showing his ambition to go the long way.

Two days before, Low G and tlinh also attracted attention when releasing the MV. Love Game , reminiscent of 2000s hip hop, combines modern pop with beats produced by Machiot.

The MV recreates the Y2K space with symbols such as Yahoo! Messenger, sliding phones, and internet cafes, hitting the nostalgic psychology of the 8X and 9X generations.

MCK Paradox

But one of the most mentioned names is MCK (Nghiem Vu Hoang Long). After the album 99% (2023) was well received, MCK is expected to return with many new projects.

However, in 2025 he only released two remakes: Free Drill Tower and 2323 . Both versions are remade from old songs. On forums, it's not hard to see comments like "when will MCK release an album?", "please release music"...

"Mr. Nghiem" has only released 2 remakes of Drill Tower and 2323 in 2025.

Coming from underground, MCK soon attracted attention with his rap songs. Love is bitter like a cup of coffee , King ... Possessing the ability to play wordplay, change flow, and at the same time be able to sing and write melodies, MCK's music goes beyond pure rap to reach the masses.

Products like Deep down (combined with Trung Tran, 2022) or I'm better now. (99% album) shows that MCK can both rap technically and create songs that have a mainstream life. Up to now Deep down has surpassed 63 million streams on Spotify, I'm better now. reached more than 44 million streams.

More importantly, MCK still maintains his own personality, not following short-term trends. While many rappers exploit trap to easily go viral, he persistently writes lyrics with many layers of meaning, sometimes thorny, sometimes romantic.

Besides, the unique image from fashion style to lyrics also contributes to strengthening the attraction.

Fans often see him in the boxing gym, the gym, walking around the streets on his stories but rarely in the studio, this paradox makes the wait even longer. In other words, the audience is not only "waiting for music" from MCK but also waiting to see what new things he will bring.
