Ika Putri's 'Sadis' Remake by Bebi Romeo Presents a Different Vibe

The music industry in the homeland is once again enlivened by the presence of a solo female artist with a distinctive vocal character, Ika Putri. After deciding to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the entertainment stage, this singer from Surabaya finally made a sweet comeback. She returns with a masterpiece created by Bebi Romeo titled Sadis, which was previously very closely associated with the original singer, Afgan.

Ika Putri's decision to return to the recording studio was not an easy one, especially with the technical challenges presented. Under the auspices of BHS Productions and the skilled hands of producer Seno M. Hardjo, Ika Putri was challenged to bring new life to the song with a more mature arrangement and vocal techniques that held back her ego.

"Singing this song in a different way, meaning lowering the ego, singing in a semi-whisper. Because actually, singing in such a way is much more difficult than singing with a loud, booming voice," she said when met at RRI, Central Jakarta, on Friday (13/2/2026).

In her creative process, Ika Putri admits she had to suppress her ego as a singer who usually emphasizes vocal strength or power. She was required to highlight the emotion and depth of the lyrics more. The semi-whisper technique became her main weapon this time to convey the deep sorrowful message in the song.

The background of choosing this song is quite interesting and relevant to many people. 'Sadis' is not just a song about a failed romance, but rather a portrayal of emotional violence in a relationship. This song tells the story of silent betrayal and decaying promises, where someone feels treated cruelly by their unfaithful partner.

Ika Putri's hard work and her team's efforts have indeed borne very sweet and unexpected results. Although she had doubts about whether her work was still relevant to today's listeners after a long hiatus, positive responses have actually been pouring in from digital music enthusiasts. The streaming numbers show a satisfying organic growth.

"The number 100,000 feels like an achievement as well. But for me, after almost 7 years of not producing, not being active or existing in the music world, that number 100,000 felt like a dream. So when I was truly able to reach that in less than 2 months, I felt moved," said Ika Putri with teary eyes.

Achieving a place in 4 Official Playlists on Spotify is a tangible proof that music with depth still has a place. This also marks that Ika Putri is ready to engage with a new generation of listeners who are more familiar with digital playlists.

Producer Seno M. Hardjo added that Ika Putri has qualities that many other singers do not possess. According to him, the maintained vocal quality is the main key to why Ika Putri is still worth considering in the current music industry as a mature singer.

"That quality is very well maintained. That's why I say, Ika, you are the queen," praised Seno M. Hardjo at the same opportunity to close the discussion.
