Hanoi (VNA) - Vietnamese divo Tung Duong once again emerged as the big winner at the 16th Devotion Music Awards, held online in Hanoi and HCM City on January 7.


Duong won three of the nine major categories, including “Album of the Year” for his progressive rock album “Human”, “Music Show of the Year” for the “Human” liveshow, and “Singer of the Year” for his powerful and energetic performances and contributions to contemporary music.

He has so far taken home 13 prizes at the Devotion Music Awards.

“Producer of the Year” went to DJ and music producer Hoang Touliver, who is Music Director of the TV reality show Rap Viet, which looks for the next best rapper in Vietnam. The show was a hit, with more than 1 million viewers tuning in to watch the finale on YouTube.

Rap Viet was also honoured with “Music Series of the Year”.
