How is 'cover phenomenon' Ngo Lan Huong now?
From an internet phenomenon, Ngo Lan Huong made an effort to move to the South to pursue a professional singing career after emerging from the show "The Voice of Vietnam 2017".
Ngo Lan Huong was born in 1998, known for her cover clips on social networks. She studied Foreign Economics at Hanoi Foreign Trade University. After the contestThe Voice Vietnam 2017, Toc Tien's student began pursuing artistic activities, releasing a number of music projects such asDo you want to take me home, Love, don't be afraid of pain...
Sharing about her career, the singer from Thanh Hoa admitted that at first, singing was just a hobby for her, so she never thought of choosing it as her destination. However, when covering songs and posting them on YouTube for fun, Ngo Lan Huong was fortunate to be well received by the audience. Some songs even reached millions of views, helping her gain more confidence in her singing voice.
After a period of being considered a “cover phenomenon”, the female singer participated in a music competition and left a strong impression on the audience. That helped Lan Huong realize that she was capable of pursuing a professional career if she put her all into it.
Since turning to professional activities, Ngo Lan Huong has noticed many changes from the way the audience perceives to the way they invest in music products. “When I was a YouTuber, people only saw me as a cute girl who could sing, and listened to me sing for fun. But when I decided to pursue a professional artistic path, people's strictness multiplied 10 times.”
Ngo Lan Huong shared that she has begun to receive frank compliments and criticisms from listeners. Talking about her attitude when receiving them, the 24-year-old singer expressed her opinion: “I am grateful for that. As long as the audience is willing to give me feedback, willing to listen to the way I sing to correct myself, then they still care.”
Having gone through a period of being constantly criticized by netizens, Ngo Lan Huong has now gradually learned how to deal with negativity. She said: “Negative comments are a must in an artist’s artistic path, not having them is dangerous. When an artist receives mixed opinions, some people love them very much, some people hate them very much, it means that the artist is very successful. But an artist who only receives love probably does not exist, if he does exist, he is not famous.”
While working as a YouTuber, Ngo Lan Huong could work alone, when she entered the professional singing career, the female singer realized that she needed a team and relationships. The singer born in 1998 said that when she first moved to the South to start her career, she spent the first month meeting artists to build more relationships for herself.
“There are artists that Huong had only interacted with a little bit before, I also asked to meet so that everyone would know that I had come to the South and was already working professionally in the arts. Maybe because I was truly sincere, I was lucky to have my first friends like Ms. Truong Thao Nhi and Mr. Trung Quan. They loved and supported me very much,” Ngo Lan Huong confided.
