Vietnam’s King of Rap 2020 winner ICD shared his new single, “KẺ XUẤT CHÚNG” (Excellent Man), on August 5 via Def Jam Vietnam. The track follows his earlier single, “UNSTOPPABLE.”
The track alludes to his life standing on the sidelines. He raps, “Anh trở thành rapper trong một lần nghịch thử, lịch sử tạo ra ICD, ICD tạo ra lịch sử’” (I became a rapper in a trial, history made ICD, ICD made history). He shared in a press statement, “Even though you do not have a silver spoon in your mouth, it will not be able to stop you from becoming a rapper.”
On “KẺ XUẤT CHÚNG,” ICD has swapped his usually serious attitude for a playful one. He says in an interview with Saostar Vietnam, “Though I cherish the past, I want to show everyone that my music is also diverse, with creativity and a desire to explore, I am willing to find new challenges.”
ICD rose to fame as the champion of Vietnam’s King of Rap 2020. His distinct lyrical approach has garnered him a strong fanbase. With hit songs like “TÀI SẢN CỦA BỐ” and “Thật Bất Ngờ,” ICD has made a name for himself winning more than ten awards combined from Underground Rapstar and Viet HipHop Awards.
