Siu BLACK : Queen of Soul

Siu Black: The Queen of Soul


Siu Black is a prominent Vietnamese Singer and one of the most influential and important voices in the history of popular music in Vietnam. Siu Black reminds me of the most famous soul singer of the 60’s: The legendary Aretha Franklin.

Both Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin & Siu Black fuses soul sensuality of R&B, the innovation of jazz, and the precision of pop in their style. She has been mentored by Y Moan and recorded several songs of Nguyễn Cường, which endured her to the public.

Her powerful voice, down to earth disposition plus a friendly comedic presence have achieved great popularity among Vietnamese and foreign audiences. With numerous Golden accolades in national singing contest and was bestowed the Asean Golden Voice in 1996 (Japan).

Her Star continues to shine and enthrall everyone. Born in the wonderful sunny day of August 27, 1967 in Pleitonghia commune. This Lass is the daughter of the City of Kontum, South Vietnam Central Highlands.

She is proud of her ethnic background and is a member of the Ba Na (Bahnar) ethnic group. With her roots from the highlands she has transformed a house in 23 Cuu Long St. Tan binh district near the Tan San Nhat Airport as a venue for up and coming POP singers.

 As a way of her helping out artist and for them to make a name for themselves the Siu Black Café is a singing venue to hone their craft.

The café is decorated with ethnic flair reminiscent of the central highlands and showcases talented singers. While sipping your café sua da or smoothies one can listen to the melodic and emerging vietnamese sounds with glee.  Be astonished with the plethora of powerful voices singing rock, ballads and Pop Vietnamese music filling the air with different high notes coming from the heart.

We’ve experienced the hospitality of Vietnam’s music industry thru Ms. Siu Black’s invitation and their music industry is now healthy and evolving into more varied genres.

Kudos and more power to Siu Black who cares and continue to champion Vietnamese Music.
By the way did you know she is the Vietnam idol judge as well!
