Son Tung's name appeared on the website of an American music magazine. |
The author of the article also believes that the combination of Son Tung and Snoop Dogg is "reasonable" and is expected to bring in large revenues.
Not long before, the World Music Awards (WMAs) fanpage posted a long article to inform about the collaboration product of Son Tung and Snoop Dogg.
The author affectionately calls Son Tung "Prince of Pop Music of Vietnam" and comments: "Son Tung is one of the leading artists in Vietnam. He is still building his name in the international market. His previous MV "Run Now" even broke the record of BTS' MV "DNA" in the race for views in the first 24 hours."
As assessed by the World Music Awards, Son Tung is still gradually building his personal brand in the international market. Of course, this is a very difficult goal because even the top artists of Asian countries cannot easily achieve it.
After 2 days of release, the MV "Give It To Me" has started to create small waves in the international media. Foreign audiences are commenting more and more about this MV on Youtube.
