Duyên Quỳnh and Nguyễn Văn Chung release competing patriotic songs

The competitive landscape for patriotic music in Vietnam during the September 2nd holiday period has seen a shift as former collaborators Duyên Quỳnh and Nguyễn Văn Chung release solo projects. Duyên Quỳnh, who previously saw significant career growth following the hit ‘Viết tiếp câu chuyện hòa bình’, has released ‘Việt Nam gấm vóc rạng ngời’, a song she both composed and performed.

Despite the cinematic and epic style of her new track, it has reportedly not achieved the same level of impact or trending status as her previous work. Meanwhile, Nguyễn Văn Chung has collaborated with singer Tùng Dương on the track ‘Khát vọng vinh quang’. Other notable entries in this musical cycle include ‘Mang hồn Việt đi muôn nơi’ by Lê Xuân Nghi. Analysts note that the current wave of patriotic music lacks a major breakout hit capable of dominating top trending charts compared to the previous year.
