Sơn Tùng M-TP appeared on Genius Open Mic with a live performance of 'Come My Way'. Unlike the original release with Tyga, the Open Mic stage puts Sơn Tùng at the center and lets him carry the performance alone. M-TP Entertainment calls it the first live performance of 'Come My Way', and frames the appearance as a further step in bringing Sơn Tùng's music closer to international audiences. Watching says it best, so DETOON puts the video right here.
From a track with Tyga to a stage with only Sơn Tùng M-TP
'Come My Way' was released on May 28, 2026. The official audio credits list Sơn Tùng M-TP and Tyga as performers; Sơn Tùng M-TP, Marvey Muzique and Tyga on writing, with Marvey Muzique on production, mixing and mastering. The original release thus had the shape of an international collaboration.
At Genius Open Mic, the approach shifts. The video description says Sơn Tùng performs the song alone, with no Tyga in this performance. That makes the Open Mic version worth watching even for those who've heard 'Come My Way' before: the same song, placed in a different performance context.
Genius Open Mic is a different stage from the MV
What stands out isn't just the word 'live'. Genius' Open Mic centers the performer and the song rather than building an MV with layers of visuals, settings and story. In the 'Come My Way' video, Sơn Tùng becomes the focal point of the frame.
So viewers get to notice more: how he handles the song live, the performance pacing, how he moves and plays to the camera, and how 'Come My Way' works when stripped from an MV's structure. That's also why DETOON doesn't frame it as 'the live is better or worse than the studio' — the two versions serve two different experiences.
'Come My Way' blends Vietnam and Afrobeats
Introducing the performance, Genius highlighted the mix of Vietnamese scenery and West African (Afrobeats) rhythms. That fits the original's direction: released in late May, the song drew attention for its international flavor and Tyga's presence; VOV noted the original used a bold, dense, modern production and got both positive and mixed responses from Vietnamese listeners. So Open Mic can be seen as another way for the song to keep living after its initial release.
This is the first live of 'Come My Way'
M-TP Entertainment called the Genius Open Mic performance the 'first live performance of COME MY WAY', and framed it as another step in bringing Sơn Tùng's music to a global audience. That detail matters more than just calling the video 'a new live': 'Come My Way' already had the original and later a Softer Version in July, while Open Mic brings a different version — a live performance focused on Sơn Tùng M-TP himself.
The video quickly hit YouTube Trending Vietnam
After Genius posted the video on September 25, the performance began appearing on YouTube Trending Vietnam. On September 28 it was noted at #8 with about 788,900 views at the snapshot; a day later, September 29 data put it at #7 with about 851,300 views. These are historical figures at each point in time, not current view counts.
What's notable isn't just the ranking. The video was posted on Genius rather than only within Sơn Tùng M-TP's own channels — adding another touchpoint between a Vietnamese artist and an international music platform's audience.
One song, several versions for different moods
Since May, 'Come My Way' has appeared in several forms: the original (released May 28, with Tyga), a Softer Version (introduced in July with a gentler approach), and Genius Open Mic (a live experience focused on Sơn Tùng M-TP).
That's a better angle for DETOON too: not necessarily asking 'which version is best?', but 'what mood do you want Come My Way in today?'. The original for full production; the Softer Version for a lighter tone; Open Mic for the performance experience.
From Vietnam to an international music stage
M-TP Entertainment describes the Open Mic appearance as a step toward bringing Sơn Tùng's music closer to global audiences — that's how the artist's company positions the event, not an independent conclusion about international success. But in terms of presence, one thing is clear: 'Come My Way' now exists not only on Sơn Tùng's official channels, but also under Genius' performance format.
For a song already geared toward international collaboration since its release with Tyga, stepping onto Open Mic creates another version from which those who never saw the original MV can start. Perhaps that's why Luna's line fits this one: 'Put on the live as background, and you end up watching the whole thing.' Not because the video needs a complex story, but because the Open Mic format makes the performer the thing to watch.
