MV Pickleball by "brother" Do Phu Qui after 8 days of release "gained" a modest number of views and countless critical comments.
Below the released MV, there are more than 4 thousand comments with many negative reactions from the audience, when "Pickleball" has cliche lyrics and monotonous MV images.
Do Phu Qui sings unclearly except for the chorus which is considered meaningless. The entire MV, which is more than 3 minutes long, only revolves around the image of Phu Qui posing on the practice field.
On many music forums, Do Phu Qui's "Pickleball" is ranked among the top disaster songs of Vietnamese music along with Phi Phuong Anh's "Don't Cuckold Me" or Chi Pu's "Sashimi".
Most viewers think that after watching this MV, they will understand why Do Phu Qui was eliminated early on Anh trai say hi.
In recent days, in addition to Do Phu Qui, the "talented" Neko Le from Call Me by Fire has also had his poor dancing and monotonous rapping images widely shared at a music night.
Previously, even a hot name like Duong Domic of Anh trai say hi also caused controversy because when performing, he showed too many skills "outside of music" and was lazy to sing. Accordingly, Duong Domic continuously stopped singing to dance and shout, stirring up the stage. Many fans expressed disappointment when they came to the event to listen to Duong Domic sing instead of listening to the backtrack (pre-recorded audio version).
With the overwhelming appeal of Anh trai say hi and Call Me by Fire, the young singers received special attention after these two shows ended. Even the names that were eliminated from the two Anh trai shows such as Do Phu Qui or Neko Le also received attention from the audience with high expectations.
On the stage of Anh trai say hi, Call Me by Fire, the group performances were invested heavily, elaborately staged with the assistance of hundreds of dancers, sound, lighting, and stage directors... This meticulous investment has turned all the "brothers" when stepping onto the stage of reality TV into interesting, talented, and attractive ones.
It was only when they left the show, when they had to stand on their own two feet, when there was no more investment from the producer, that each "brother" and "talent" revealed all their weaknesses.
Not only Do Phu Qui or Neko Le, many other "brothers" and "talents" if they do not invest their efforts, talents, and meticulousness in each performance or in their music products, will have to stand in the center of criticism from the audience.
When noticed, when expected, when having a launching pad from reality TV, young artists will have to face great pressure from the audience.
Many names are rising to the top, changing the performance market as well as "devaluing salaries", such as: HIEUTHUHAI, Rhyder or Soobin Hoang Son... But, even with the hottest names, whose talents have been recognized, the effort and striving to improve themselves is still a journey that they must pursue every day.
