Long Before He Became Famous, Denny Caknan Had Been 'Learning' From Didi Kempot

Kapanlagi.com - Denny Caknan has become one of the idols of today's dangdut fans. Emerging with the song Kartonyono Medot Janji, this artist, whose real name is Denny Setiawan, is even associated with the figure of The Godfather of Broken Heart, Didi Kempot.

It is also known that before going viral with dangdut and campur sari genre songs, Denny had also produced pop genre songs, but failed to elevate his name.

1. Frequent Visits to Didi Kempot's House

There are also other interesting facts about Denny Caknan. Apparently, long before his name became known as it is today, he had often visited the late Didi Kempot's house to exchange ideas and learn about his works. According to him, discussions with the maestro certainly provide a lot of knowledge for him.

"Frequently, even long before becoming famous like this, I often went to his house. His knowledge is extraordinary," said Denny Caknan when met at the KLY office, Menteng, Central Jakarta not long ago.

2. Frequently Asking for Advice from Didi Kempot

Denny Caknan also recalled the moments when he often visited when the late Didi Kempot was still alive. At that time, he came to ask for opinions when he was about to release his first pop genre work. And from there, he became very close to Didi Kempot.

"When I was about to work on my first pop song, I went to his house, had coffee, and coincidentally there was a celebration of 1000 days for mas Mamik. Then we talked and I asked what I should do when I release a pop song, he said 'just keep creating'," he said.

"At that time, there was no 'Kartoyono Medot Janji' song yet, and I don't know why I ended up making more dangdut songs, often performing together, having coffee together, and having more random conversations," he concluded.
