Nosiah — Ấn Định cover

Nosiah [ @haisonn_08 ] is a Hanoi-born artist who began releasing music in 2023. What started as a personal hobby quickly evolved into a serious creative pursuit with the release of Astral Plane, a collaborative album alongside Bluebby and 7bizz [ @_7bizz ]. He followed with under the tree in 2024, an EP produced with Liltrashgod [ @liltrashgod ] that explored darker, more experimental sounds. By 2025, collaborations including Tài Chính & Shisha with Việt Tài Chính [ @viettaichinhonline ] and 7bizz, alongside releases with Yellowa [ @__yellowa ], Chó Phú Quốc [ @duy_tdb ], Bloodring [ @bloodring.1111 ], Hanoimenace [ @1hanoimenace ], and Liltrashgod, had established him as one of the emerging voices within Vietnam's underground rap scene.

Released on May 30, 2026, Ấn Định marks Nosiah's debut solo album and the culmination of nearly two years of development. The title reflects his ambition to leave a lasting mark on Vietnam's rap scene at a time when its underground culture is still defining its own identity. Rather than following existing trends, the project aims to carve out a distinct artistic space.

Produced entirely by the Noisemaker collective [ @_noisemaker ], with mixing and mastering by MINHPHAM [ @minhphamprod ] and Sleepat6pm [ @sleepat6pm ], Ấn Định blends the raw energy of super trap with the emotional atmosphere of the "iluvmusic" sound. Themes of isolation, ambition, confidence, and self-definition run throughout the album, carried by heavy production, atmospheric melodies, and melodic trap influences that gradually evolve into harder-hitting rage-inspired records.

Nosiah against a white wall

Outside of music, Nosiah studies Digital Film, a discipline he considers his primary artistic focus. Film and music continue to shape one another within his creative process, reflecting a curiosity that extends beyond any single medium. More than a debut album, Ấn Định stands as a declaration of identity and an ambitious first chapter from one of Vietnam's most promising new artists.
