Tri and Zidan's apology has also caught the attention of senior musicians. Various praises were given to both of them for their humility to admit their mistakes and apologize openly.

"This means that Tri has been noticed by the industry, so he can't be careless anymore.
Stay motivated, learn from mistakes. Because there are many singers with better voices, better songs, and better physical appearance, and younger age. But what will make the difference is attitude. Tri is a good person, @babang_andikamahesa is also a good person who is forgiving, hopefully they can meet in a good opportunity," wrote Ifan Seventeen.

"The best deed is to admit mistakes and not repeat them, and the deed that Allah loves the most is to forgive those who apologize. I believe my friends @babang_andikamahesa and @rizalarmada are wise people," said Dide Hijau Daun.

"Admitting a mistake and apologizing is not an easy thing to do. There are many people who have pride and high ego to apologize. Take this as a lesson to become better," praised Ruri Repvblik.

"There are many lessons to be learned from this, Tri. Abang knows you never intended to offend, as assumed in the video clip that can lead to many assumptions. Hopefully you will soon meet @babang_andikamahesa and have a good conversation," wrote Anji.
