During the 2022 Tet season, every time you surf TikTok, many people will come across at least one video using the sound from the song Siren by CDSL members - TGSN, tlinh, RZ Mas. The most prominent rap line of this song is: "Comrade tlinh, dress up".

Mason Nguyen (formerly known as RZ Mas) is a rapper who is no stranger to the rap music community. Mason Nguyen is a member of the RhymeZone team, one of the most popular rap groups today. He is the owner of the famous rap line "comrade tlinh len do", this rap line has become a phenomenon in the rap community and is loved by many people. The hashtag #duocroidithoi has received more than 2.1 million views on this platform thanks to that explosion.

Mason Nguyen's real name is Nguyen Xuan Bach, born in 2000 in Hanoi. He is a rapper known for his youthful, strong rap style, good rhyming ability and special flow.

Mason Nguyen is one of the rappers working at CDSL - the management company of many prominent names in the music community such as MCK, hnhngan, Phongkhin or TGSN. He possesses a special high-pitched voice, modern rhyming style and unique rap writing style.

Mason Nguyen has participated in many famous rap competitions, notably Champion League - the largest Freestyle Rap Competition in the North. He also participated in Beck'Stage Unexpected Rap Fest and excellently entered the Top 16.

In 2020, Mason Nguyen had the opportunity to appear on television when participating in King Of Rap. However, he had to stop in episode 7 after facing RichChoi, who later won the runner-up position.

In early 2021, at the Rap Viet casting in Hanoi, Mason Nguyen confidently demonstrated his talent in front of the powerful judges. Although he was loved by the rap fan community, he was unable to make a deep impression and go far in the program due to the fierce competition.

As a prominent member of the RhymeZone group, Mason Nguyen has appeared in many million-view hits. Before becoming known for the song Siren - creating the trend "comrade tlinh len do", he had contributed his voice to popular products of the Rap/Underground community such as Thu Do Cypher and Rap Cham Thoi.

His lyric: "Shoot Rap like an AK, ra ta ta ta..." also became a TikTok trend in mid-2021, creating a transformation trend that remains hot to this day.

In Capital Cypher, Mason Nguyen made a strong impression when he opened his verse with the rap: "There was a guy who was beaten mercilessly. Because he ate vermicelli with bean curd and chili sauce". Hot streamer ViruSs couldn't stop laughing and replaying this rap in his reaction video. The MV Capital Cypher has now attracted more than 40 million views, with the combination of Orijinn, Low G, Mason Nguyen and MCK.

In addition, Mason Nguyen also contributed his voice to many other outstanding music products such as Het Nhac Con Ve (in collaboration with Duy B), Not Afraid (over 3.6 million views), Anhs & Ems (in collaboration with QNT, Wxrdie, nearly 2 million views) and Rise n Fight (in collaboration with QNT, RPT Orijinn, Ginger, Wxrdie, nearly 2 million views).

He also regularly collaborates with RPT Orijinn and rapper QNT in his music products. The difference in his music comes from his "strange" rhyming technique and "fighting" vocals. He also joined the members of the Rapital team in a battle with G Family - one of the most powerful forces in the Rap community in the South.

Bringing rap name Mason Nguyen back to Rap Viet after failing the casting 3 times, rapper RZ Mas successfully won the Golden Hat from coach Karik.

However, with the "heartache" of failing the casting 3 times, Mason Nguyen said he decided to change his feng shui, using a new stage name to find a last chance at Rap Viet. Appearing on the stage of the Conquest round, performing the song Dung Ghen - with the support of singer Vu Thao My, Mason Nguyen received all 4 choices from the coaching team.

Coach BigDaddy commented: "I have known Mason for a long time, 5-7 years ago and I always wondered why he still could not achieve what he deserved. I am sure that Rap Viet 2024 will be the place to make Mason Nguyen an extremely hot name!".

The battle for "thousand-blooded warrior" Mason Nguyen between the coaches became more intense when Karik insisted that "this is the name I've been waiting for".

Finally, Karik decided to end the contestant fight with the Golden Hat: "Before that, there were many contestants who made me want to throw the Golden Hat, but I was determined to wait for you. Because I know that you deserve this and you should belong to my team."

Just recently, Mason Nguyen "joined hands" with Phao to release the MV "Tinh K" which was released at exactly 8:00 p.m. on November 11. Tinh K is a love song combined with wordplay commonly found in rap culture to make the audience hear the most romantic scent possible.

The song was written by Phao and Mason Nguyen in just one evening when they joined together and practiced homophones like usual. Through the hands of Producer Machiot, Tinh K became catchy, trendy, and more modern than ever.

From the initial demos, it took more than 8 months for Phao to complete Tinh K including production and MV to send to the audience.
