Life and career
1996-2017: Childhood and career turning point
Masew was born in Cẩm Phả city, Quảng Ninh province. Although no one in his family followed the path of art, his interest in music started early in grade 9. He began to learn and explore how to produce music. He often went to the Internet cafe near his school and the first melody he created was "Kìa con buom vang". After finishing high school, he decided to drop out of school. He worked part-time at a clothing store and made music in his free time. He started his music career in the underground music scene, producing songs and posting them on his personal YouTube channel.[citation needed]
Just a few years later, he received attention when he remixed songs like "Nếu như là định mệnh", "Có em chờ", "Điều khác lạ".
In 2017, Masew and Nhatnguyen composed the song "Túy âm", sung by Xesie, and the song was posted on Masew's YouTube channel. The song quickly became a sensation on social networks.[6] Initially, the group only expected this work to reach 1 million views, but the popularity of "Túy âm" exceeded expectation. After only 20 days of release, "Túy âm" received more than 30 million views, and it reached 100 million views by March 4, 2018.

He collaborated with K-ICM and Đạt G to release the song "Buồn của anh", which quickly attracted enthusiastic attention and appeared in top trending searches.[7] After 2 months after its release, "Buon cua Anh" had reached 100 million views on YouTube. Then, he, B Ray and Dat G founded the band Ba Cham. The band released songs such as "Xin" and "Thương nhiều hơn là nói". The group was active from the end of 2017 to mid-2018 when it announced its disbandment.[8][9]
