Ahmad Dhani Says Good Voice Is Not a Guarantee in 'THE ICON INDONESIA'

The legendary musician Ahmad Dhani returns with his sharp and often out-of-the-box views. Appointed as one of the eight judges in the event THE ICON INDONESIA, he emphasized that being a music icon is not solely about perfect vocal technique.

According to the frontman of Dewa 19, the factor of "rezeki" or destiny plays a very significant role in an artist's career. He has seen many singers with extraordinary vocal quality who failed to shine, and vice versa.

"Number one is actually rezeki, that can't be explained academically. Every human has their own rezeki," said Ahmad Dhani when met at SCTV Tower, Senayan, Central Jakarta, Monday (4/6/2026),

The father of Al, El, and Dul even took an example from one of the world's greatest rock icons, Mick Jagger, to strengthen his argument. For him, the charisma and appeal of a star are often more important than having excellent vocal abilities.

"An icon doesn't have to be a great singer. Like Mick Jagger, he can't sing very well but he's a huge icon," he emphasized.

However, Dhani does not deny the importance of effort and hard work. He emphasizes that consistency and determination are absolute requirements to achieve success. He exemplifies how in his youth he preferred to keep creating in the studio rather than spending time on unproductive activities.

"When I was young, I always told Al, El, Dul, that I was 19 and have never been to a nightclub until now. This means every day I was immersed in music, recording, recording," he reminisced.

The requirements to become a successful musician, according to him, are actually very simple. "The requirements are actually easy, you have to be consistent. Determination is important. Love music, keep learning," he concluded.
