Betrand Peto is now known as a successful child singer. Who would have thought that the child who was once viral on social media has now become a singer adored by millions of fans.

However, Betrand Peto's career journey is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand. Since being adopted by Ruben Onsu and Sarwendah, this 15-year-old boy has often faced attacks and hatred from unknown people.

Although his psychological condition has declined, Betrand, with the help of Ruben Onsu and Sarwendah, has finally been able to rise again and create. Now, here are a series of moments in Betrand Peto's career journey, from being viral to becoming famous.

Betrand Peto began to be known to the public when he sang Judika's song titled Jikalau Cinta in 2019. Shortly after the video circulated, Betrand's figure immediately went viral and caught the attention of Ruben Onsu. Shortly after, Ruben went to Ruteng Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara to meet Betrand and bring him to Jakarta.

Betrand Peto became even more known to the public when he appeared on Brownis singing the song Ayah. Even Ruben shed tears hearing Betrand Peto sing.

Eventually, Ruben Onsu decided to produce Betrand Peto as his first singer. Not only that, Sarwendah's wife also directly asked Charly van Houten to create a special song for Betrand Peto. And when seeing Betrand's talent, Charly immediately agreed. And his first song titled Sahabat Kecil immediately became booming.

Impressed by Betrand's figure, Ruben Onsu's heart was moved to adopt Betrand as his own child. Moreover, his first daughter, Thalia Putri Onsu, has also been very close and attached to Betrand. And around July 2019, Betrand officially became Ruben Onsu's first legal child.

After that, Betrand began releasing his latest songs. And true enough, the songs performed by Betrand immediately became a topic of conversation among the public. In fact, several songs released by Betrand Peto managed to top the trending list on YouTube in several countries in Asia, surpassing the boyband BTS.

However, Betrand Peto's fame apparently made some people dislike him. Haters started to emerge on Instagram, belittling Betrand Peto. Not only that, other members of Ruben Onsu's family also became targets of hatred from the haters.

Not long after that, Betrand Peto's career continued to rise. This is evident from his achievements in winning several awards. In fact, after one year of starting his career, Betrand held his first solo concert in 2020.

After the concert, Betrand had to take a break because of the ongoing pandemic. However, he didn't want to stop creating. And as a result, on January 21, 2021, Betrand released his new song titled 'Sekali Lagi'. Interestingly, this is his first Hip Hop song and he had to rap.

However, Betrand's rising career was tarnished by the actions of some fans. Fanatical fans of Betrand accused Ruben Onsu's family of exploiting Betrand Peto's success. In fact, because of this, Betrand's psychological condition deteriorated and he had to be accompanied by a psychologist.
