In a conversation with Lao Dong reporter, the runner-up of the show Anh trai say hi - RHYDER shared that he likes traditional Tet and likes to return home when the new year comes.
“Many young people nowadays like to travel, like to move around, like to celebrate Tet in places with many new experiences, but I always want to return home when the year ends and Tet comes. Maybe because I have been away from home all year. I like the atmosphere of traditional Tet, like traditional dishes like banh chung, gio lua... at home. This year, I will probably have fewer shows to go home early” - RHYDER said.
RHYDER's favorite Tet food is fried banh chung and dishes cooked by his mother or family members.
RHYDER's real name is Nguyen Quang Anh, born in 2001, and grew up in Thanh Hoa. In 2013, when he was only 12 years old, Quang Anh won the championship of The Voice Kids. After winning the championship, Quang Anh focused on his studies. After nearly 10 years, Quang Anh returned to music but went through a difficult time, struggling because he did not attract attention.
In 2023, Quang Anh participated in the Rap Viet contest with the stage name RHYDER. In 2024, he participated in Anh trai say hi and rose to fame. RHYDER became one of the brightest faces in Anh trai say hi when he demonstrated his versatility from composing, making music, singing, rapping, to choreographing and performing. A series of million-view hits such as Hao quang, I am thinking about you, Chan thanh... brought RHYDER to the runner-up position of Anh trai say hi.
Looking back at 2024, RHYDER said, this is a turning point for him. “Participating in Anh trai say hi, I have received so much. My life has changed after the show. I have received more attention, more love from the audience, and more acceptance. I thank Anh trai say hi, thank you for the love of the audience. Coming to Anh trai say hi, I did my best, each performance was full of passion. I once lost all my confidence when I was not accepted for a long time. Now, I have regained my confidence, after the Halo and the performances were accepted and loved by the audience. The road after Anh trai say hi is still very long, I will have to work harder and try harder on my musical journey. Thank you 2024, thank you to the audience for your love, for giving me the motivation to continue my passion" - RHYDER shared before the new year.
In 2025, RHYDER has many plans for music. “Each artist will have their own direction after Anh trai say hi. For me personally, I will stick to my passion and devote all my heart to each individual product. In the end, only individual products can express the value of a musician and show the long road behind a reality show,” RHYDER said.
At the time of the new year, RHYDER sends wishes to readers of Lao Dong Newspaper, to audiences near and far, wishes for good health, wishes for a peaceful and prosperous new year, for everyone to live with joy and passion, to give their all to every plan, every dream, every day of life.
