Jabar Ekspres – Baskara Putra or known as Hindia said his latest album “Lagipula Hidup Akan Berakhir” is a life achievement.
Hindia in Jakarta, Friday, said that he will never achieve this achievement again in the future, considering that his second album contains a total of 28 songs, almost twice as many as most albums.
“Subjectively, yes, artistically. But, from a quantitative point of view, I see the success of this album, when else would I want to do anything and be obeyed by all parties involved in this album,” Hindia said.

“It’s impossible to have another chance to make a 28-song album in two parts, and it was granted,” Hindia added.
The man born on February 22, 1994 said he had tried to cut his works into shorter pieces, however, the desire to tell various stories as a whole became the reason.
“I’ve actually tried to cut it many times, yes, maybe it’s just my ego, I don’t want the story to be incomplete,” Hindia explained.
It took about two and a half years for the man who graduated from the University of Indonesia’s Faculty of Social and Political Sciences to write the lyrics and record his second album.
“Lagi Pula Hidup Akan Berakhir” tells the story of the bad legacy of the world, ranging from climate crisis, inflation, politics, to trauma. In the album, Hindia is quite angry with the current world chaos.
Furthermore, Hindia said that songwriting is the only way for him to pour out everything in his heart and head. As a way to heal himself while he was routinely counseling with a psychologist.

“Why do I still have to go back and forth to a psychologist again, other than I can be more stable when I can pour everything in the first album,” he said.
