When asked about new music trends, the rise of rap, and the influence of Kpop, whether traditional music genres will be overshadowed, musician Ho Trong Tuan said, “From a certain perspective, music is like fashion, there are trends that rise and fall. All music genres exist together like streams, each era, each generation will have its own music trends.

When a music genre produces many stars at the same time, those stars will make the music genre flourish brilliantly for a certain period, then decline to give way to another genre.

“Changes and fluctuations in musical life are inevitable. The important thing is that music has educational, entertaining and aesthetic functions. When a trend passes, works with high aesthetic and artistic value will be preserved and continue to represent and become the essence of that music genre. On the contrary, works that are only entertaining and temporary will also be easily forgotten when the trend passes,” said musician Ho Trong Tuan.
