In the program "Shining Sao Doi 2026", singer Ho Trung Dung takes on the role of judge in the challenge round with two artists Doan Trang and Sy Luan. With many years of experience on stage, the male singer is expected to bring profound professional comments and inspire young contestants.
Ho Trung Dung said that he is quite demanding in music. However, he always tries to make constructive comments to help contestants improve through each round of competition.
When I am a judge, the thing that makes me happiest is when contestants say that my advice helps them sing better. I always want my comments to become motivation for them to become a better version of themselves," the male singer shared.
After more than 15 years of artistic activity, Ho Trung Dung said that he no longer values the concept of success as much as before. For him, current success is simply singing his favorite songs and standing on stage in front of audiences who truly sympathize with his music.
In the near future, the male singer plans to release an album of 11 songs composed by himself. According to Ho Trung Dung, this is not only a music project but also a way for him to fully express his creative personality after many years in the profession.
Besides the role of singer, Ho Trung Dung is also a vocal lecturer. He believes that these two roles have many intersections but also require different approaches.
When standing on stage, I can freely immerse myself in music. But when standing on the podium, I am clearly aware of the responsibility of a teacher, to guide and impart knowledge seriously," he said.
Sharing about the development of artificial intelligence in the field of music, Ho Trung Dung said that AI can create "sounding good" songs but it is difficult to create deep emotions.
I have received a few songs written by AI. Listening to each part is quite okay, but overall it lacks emotion and feels like many other songs. AI learns from available data, so it often follows the beaten path," the male singer commented.
Even, some people once tried to create an AI version with the requirement to sing like Ho Trung Dung, but according to him, the results are still not really convincing. "Until now, I have not seen any AI version sing like me," he said.
However, the male singer admitted that AI is developing very quickly and can create many changes in the music industry. However, he believes that human creativity and emotion are still irreplaceable factors.
