Once Viral on Social Media, Now Gilang Arsa Duets with Yuni Shara & Dul Jaelani on Hit Album! - Grateful for the Opportunity to Sing a Song Written by Badai

Gilang Arsa, a young singer from Lampung, is one of the proofs that social media can be a pathway to the national music stage. Starting from singing uploads on digital platforms, Gilang managed to capture the attention of netizens and eventually broke into the music industry of the homeland.

Gilang's journey into the professional world came into the spotlight when he performed at the release of the compilation album Love and Romance on May 28, 2025, at Pluit Village Mall, Jakarta. At the event, he shared stories about how he got involved in this major music project. Here are the details.

Unexpectedly, an offer from Mans Entertainment came directly to invite him to cover the song by Badai that was once popularized by Kerispatih. After going through a workshop process, the song Lagu Rindu was finally chosen as the single performed by Gilang.

"When I heard Lagu Rindu, I really liked the song and I think the reach of this song is very broad; it can express longing for anyone, not just for a partner. For me, it is very relatable, especially when I was in Jakarta because it was my first time living far from my parents and I felt very homesick for my parents at home," said Gilang during the press conference.

He also expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to perform the song created by Badai. "Thank you so much to Uncle Badai for allowing me to perform one of his coolest songs again," he continued.

Gilang is one of the newcomers in the album Love and Romance, which also features big names like Yuni Shara, Dul Jaelani, Badai, Praz Teguh, and Rio Clappy. This album can already be found in all KFC outlets in Indonesia.
