Asang is a young and widely admired Tibetan singer belonging to the Naktsang family of Camp No. 4 in Kashul Village, Barma Township in Ngaba County. He is known for songs that promote the Tibetan language, culture, and religion. He is a student of Gebey, a well-known dhunglen artist previously subjected to repeated detentions for his music.
He was detained in early July 2025, from Adue Village in Ngaba (Ch: Aba) County, Sichuan Province. The arrests came shortly after the duo publicly released a cover of the song “Prince of Peace” on the Chinese video-sharing platform Kuaishou.
