Even though many people are passionate about singing, not every singer-wannabe has the chops required to make it big time.
For this reason, we’ve seen countless starlets releasing MVs or hosting live performances, and yet, remain unable to garner a loyal fanbase. On the other hand, people who are born with musical gifts, can still make a name for themselves with the power of social media.
This can’t be truer for Tinh Cuong, a talented TikToker whose singing clips regularly go viral on social media. Identifying himself as an electrical engineer, Cuong often appears in his song covers in uniform while belting out famous songs.

The talented engineer has belted out famous hits such as “Tinh Xua Nghia Cu” and “Nho Nhau Hoai”, while sitting in his trademark laid-back position, at seemingly ordinary locations.

Today, social media has become a powerful platform that can catapult talented artists from all walks of life into the spotlight. Thanks to TikTok, Facebook and YouTube, many people have gotten popular overnight, gone into the show business, and become professional artists.
Now that Cuong has gained himself a strong fan base, let’s hope that he’ll release his own music and have a proper debut someday.
