Before announcing his decision to take a break, Fiersa Besari shared an interesting perspective on the dynamics of his career as a musician. This renowned indie singer admits that although fatigue often strikes, the spirit of his fans always motivates him.

However, amidst this fatigue, Fiersa Besari finds an invaluable source of motivation. ""But what makes me excited is meeting the people who come to watch me perform. So, that's the reason I overcome the boredom. When exchanging energy with the audience, it feels truly amazing."

This confession illustrates the dilemma faced by Fiersa Besari as a musician. On one hand, the physical demands of the stage routine feel heavy. On the other hand, the emotional connection with fans provides an irreplaceable inner satisfaction.

The singer of the song APRIL admitted that, although there is positive energy gained from his fans, his life situation has now changed. "I now have a child and am building my small family," he stated through his personal YouTube channel, marking a significant shift in his life priorities.

"I want to make the most of my time left this year before he starts school," Fiersa added. This certainly puts pressure on his desire to focus more on his role as a father.

This multi-talented musician also realizes that his various activities, including music, outdoor activities, and content creation, have taken a lot of time away from his family. "If I continue with all three, the time spent with family, especially with my child, will definitely decrease," he explained, revealing the dilemma he faces. This awareness encourages Fiersa Besari to give more attention to his family.

3. Emphasize the Decision to Rest is Not a Gimmick

In a firm statement, he denied speculation that his decision is merely a gimmick. "Is this a gimmick? No," he asserted, emphasizing the seriousness of the steps he has taken.

Regarding the future of his career, Fiersa Besari admitted he does not have a definite plan. "I don't know, I have to come back or not, I will return or not, I am not planning any concerts like before," he revealed. This statement indicates that Fiersa is opening the possibility for a fairly long hiatus, without providing certainty about his return to the stage.

Nevertheless, Fiersa Besari remains committed to completing all music contracts that have been agreed upon until the end of 2024.
