Pham Phu Nguyen (born January 8, 1998), better known by his stage name 2pillz, is a Vietnamese songwriter, DJ, record producer, and musician. Originally active in the underground scene and having collaborated with many artists in that community, he rose to mainstream prominence through his work on successful projects by singer and rapper Tlinh in 2023, including the single "Neu luc do" and the album Ai.
Joining the S•Hube music production team, he has taken on a more prominent role as a music producer for major TV shows such as Rap Viet and Chị Đẹp Đạp Gió 2024. In 2025, 2pillz released his first solo album titled Pillzcasso.
Life and career 2pillz was born on January 8, 1998, in Hanoi as Phạm Phú Nguyên. Although no one in his family pursued music, he was given the opportunity to be exposed to music from a fairly early age. He became active as an underground artist in 2015 and soon gained significant fame within the community.
In late 2019, while studying computer technology in the US, 2pillz suddenly returned home to pursue music production. Through introductions from friends, he had the chance to meet several figures in the hip-hop scene such as Tlinh, MCK, and Wxrdie, and began collaborating with them on musical projects. His first extended play (EP), titled Where Are My Pills?, was released in February 2020 in collaboration with rapper Prettyxix.
In 2023, 2pillz collaborated with Tlinh on two singles, "Ghệ iu dấu của em ơi" and "Nếu lúc đó." Among them, "Nếu lúc đó" received positive feedback from both critics and the public, peaking at number one on both the Billboard Vietnam Hot 100 and Top Vietnamese Songs charts. He also served as the primary producer for the debut studio album by female rapper Ái, released that same year; the album was ranked 15th by NME magazine on its list of the 25 best Asian albums of 2023.
In June of the same year, 2pillz officially joined S•Hube, a music production team founded and managed by St.319 Entertainment. Along with his colleagues, he served as a producer for the third season of the show Rap Viet that same year, working directly with coach Thai VG's team. The tracks he produced for the show received massive support from the audience, contributing to approximately 2.9 billion views out of the show's total 5 billion views on TikTok after just 10 episodes. On August 10, 2023, 2pillz released the new single "Tình wá akk" in collaboration with Grey D, paving the way for the mixset album The Sunset released 12 days later. The album includes eight tracks arranged in a nonstop style, using simple and repetitive lyrics to create different musical portraits of the sunset.
