Hanoi [Vietnam], September 19: After a long career in the arts, Quoc Dai has many concerns about his profession. According to him, reinventing himself to connect with the audience is essential.
Returning to the show " Unexpected Transformation," Quoc Dai expressed his trust in young talents. According to him, everyone entering the art world can have an idol to admire and learn from. From singing techniques and song interpretation to performance style, these influences will more or less impact the growth of a singer.
Singer Quoc Dai shares his feelings.
However, Quoc Dai believes that the valuable aspect lies in the ability to transform those influences into material to create one's own unique style. "Young singers are still finding their own path. But deep down, everyone has an idol singer they aspire to. The influence of that singer will follow them, but they will know how to adapt it to create their own distinctive mark," Quoc Dai shared.
According to the male singer, the requirements become increasingly stringent as the competition progresses to the finals. Once contestants gain experience through multiple rounds, similarities in voice or style are no longer sufficient to create differentiation. A truly outstanding performance must surprise the audience and, more importantly, evoke emotion. "Similarity is already difficult; if it also touches the audience's emotions, that will determine success," Quoc Dai stated.
This perspective also stems from the singer's many years of experience performing on stage. Quoc Dai believes that technique can be honed, visuals can be invested in, but emotion is what helps a performance stay in the hearts of listeners longer.
From the contestant's story, Quoc Dai also saw a problem that artists themselves face in their careers: how to constantly reinvent themselves without losing their identity. "We must innovate, we must always be innovative in our thinking, in our approach to our audience," the male singer shared his concern at nearly 50 years old.
