Den Vau was the sole guest at "See The Light" (Seeing the Light), My Tam's largest concert to date, which attracted tens of thousands of spectators. While performing songs like "Dua Nhau Di Tron" (Let's Run Away Together), "Xich Lo" (Cyclo), and "Di Ve Phia Mat Troi" (Heading Towards the Sun), Den Vau addressed My Tam during an interaction: "Recently, there have been unpleasant matters concerning me. I apologize if they have affected you and the concert".
Expressing surprise at the apology, My Tam asked if the rapper was referring to recent information about a charity project that had garnered public attention. She then stated: "If we live right and do right, there is nothing to worry about, is there? We must see with our hearts, not just our eyes. In life, have faith. We will see the light". In response, the rapper said he had found light and faith from the audience through the concert. Below the stage, tens of thousands of fans applauded him.

In recent days, the "Nuoi em" (Nurturing Children) charity project, which Den Vau had supported, faced questions regarding its financial transparency, implicating the rapper. Many stated they supported the project because they were inspired by Den Vau and his song "Nau An Cho Em" (Cooking for You). Upon releasing the song in 2023, the rapper dedicated all its revenue to this fund.
On the evening of december 7, he clarified that his involvement was limited to material and spiritual support, not as a founder or financial manager. Den affirmed that he continues to personally contribute to meals for children in highland areas annually and urged the public to calmly await conclusions from authorities.
A day earlier, at a show in TP HCM, Den had also bowed deeply on stage to thank and apologize to the audience, expressing his desire to remain a "reliable friend".
Den Vau and My Tam became acquainted after performing together at the "Hoa Xuan ca" (Spring Flower Song) program earlier this year. They quickly bonded during their first meeting, sharing similar perspectives on life and their profession. He appreciates how My Tam refers to her audience as "tri am", a term that signifies deep understanding and connection.
