Nguyễn Thanh Tùng, known by his stage name Sơn Tùng M-TP and previously simply as M-TP, is a Vietnamese singer, actor, rapper, producer, and founder of his record company and agency M-TP Entertainment.

Born in Thái Bình, Thái Bình Province, his musical abilities were discovered by his family by age two; his family were also heavily interested in music, which is perhaps why they noticed his abilities so early on.

When he entered high school, he got his first computer and began to write and compose songs as his passion for music grew. As a result, he jokingly told friends that one day he’d be the most famous Vietnamese singer in the country and that he’d be too busy to make time for them – eventually, the joke became reality as today – he is considered as the modern king of Vietnamese pop music and is an icon spreading Vietnamese music to people outside Vietnam.

In 2019, he collaborated with Snoop Dogg on the track Hãy Trao Cho Anh.
