Negav delusions of success
In recent days, the statement "Mom, do you think it's right to let me stay home from school?" by rapper Negav during the concert Anh trai say hi has spread on the internet with a lot of controversy.
Negav's apology post was posted shortly after the show ended, attracting more than 118,000 likes and nearly 6,000 comments.
The public reaction showed that Negav's fuss was well-received. The rapper standing in front of tens of thousands of people and implying that he was right to skip school was seen as arrogant and conceited.
Negav was also criticized for being delusional and defining success too early. "Rap is just a part of music, music is just a part of life, Negav is somewhat delusional when he thinks he has succeeded" - account Nguyen Long expressed his opinion.
Previously, Negav built an image as a young idol with a cute appearance, saying what he thinks, and responding innocently, thereby winning the hearts of fans.
In just a few days, many people "turned around" and stopped supporting Negav. Because showbiz has many cute, innocent, talented stars who are no less than Negav, and also inspire learning.
Not far away, HIEUTHUHAI once made the audience admire his intelligence and extensive knowledge when playing games in the program.
HIEUTHUHAI and Hurrykng - in the same team as Gerdnang with Negav, both finished their university studies. Both of them tried to graduate from university with a major in economics, although they were also passionate about music and worked in a different field like Negav.
In Vietnamese showbiz, many artists such as Ha Anh Tuan, Toc Tien, Vu Cat Tuong, Midu... are loved and recognized by the public for their good academic achievements and constant improvement of knowledge in addition to artistic activities.
Therefore, the audience was upset when a young newcomer like Negav had an attitude of disregarding his studies and being pleased with himself for having just received attention after a TV show.
Negav needs to grow up
When it comes to Negav's slip of the tongue, Hurrykng said it was "Negav's coming of age day". It was the time when Negav needed to be more aware of his responsibility to the public as an influencer to a large young audience.
Talking to Lao Dong reporters about the role of celebrities in society, Associate Professor Dr. Le Huy Hoang - Deputy Director of the Department of Education (Central Propaganda Department) - commented: "For celebrities in the fields of culture and art, their views and opinions can influence young people, especially those who consider them idols. Therefore, their statements should not come from an individual incident to generalize into a common view or opinion. Therefore, celebrities need to be very careful in their statements, always aiming for good and positive things in the community."
Regarding the opinion that one can be successful without studying, Mr. Le Huy Hoang said that those who succeed without studying are only a minority, isolated, and this should not be encouraged, especially among young people.
"Practice shows that people with qualifications and many contributions to society are all due to good education. The mistake of the above opinion is that from the individual phenomenon of a few people, it denies the role of education and training, a field considered a "top national policy" in Vietnam and many countries in the world," Associate Professor, Dr. Le Huy Hoang affirmed.
Meanwhile, Associate Professor Dr. Le Quy Duc - former Deputy Director of the Institute of Culture, Ho Chi Minh National Academy of Politics - said that being equipped with knowledge, skills, professional ethics, and the right attitude towards work is very important.
He believes that artists must aim for beauty, towards positive values, to beautify life. Artists will come into contact with many people, from the public to colleagues, and one of the things they need to have is ethics, in addition to practicing professional skills.
Media experts say that Negav was too "innocent" and hasty. Because many people only realize the importance of education when they reach adulthood.
