They debuted as a group in 2020 by releasing the single Kawan under Geronimo Records.

In addition to their songs, the group will perform a number of hit songs in concert, including songs from their respective solo albums with different musical arrangements and accompanied by The Geronimo Big Band.

The stage show entitled “Nitatadi's Love World Concert; for Kawan” it will also be the moment of the launch of their second single entitled Dunia Cinta.

The song Dunia Cinta was first performed at the Indonesian Popular Song Festival in 1987 by Geronimo 8 and this time re-arranged by Harry Goro. The song can also be heard in the music video version on Geronimo Records' YouTube channel which premiered today.

Ronni, who once joined the Kahitna group, said that the preparations made to realize the group's concert only took about two weeks. Although short, he believes that the concert will run smoothly with the experience of each member who is familiar with the stage world.

Meanwhile, Hedi admitted that he had doubts about planning their concert as a group, including thinking about preparation. But these doubts disappeared after seeing the confidence shown by his three friends.

"Many also ask, 'Nitatadi wants a concert? It's only been two years since the group was born, they don't have a new album yet, one single and just about to release another one, what concert do you want?' Yes, it's better to just watch, deh, that's what makes me curious," said Hedi quoted from ANTARA, Thursday, June 16.

Likewise, Geronimo Records Music Director Harry Goro said that his party will present a beautiful performance and it is hoped that the audience will return home feeling happy after attending Nitatadi's concert.

“For this concert, if you say the preparation is short, yes, it's short. But we have trained the best and we have used the best people in Indonesia. We present people who play the band as key holders, from Jakarta to Solo, to Nitatadi's concert, "said Harry.

Hedi gives an idea that later on, the audience will also have fun experiences, including singing and dancing together, and feeling nostalgic together from the songs performed by Nitatadi and guest star Rida Sita Dewi (RSD). In this concert, the audience will also be presented with a collaborative performance from Dian HP.

“We are very happy and proud because after all we have so much respect for these four great singers. And being able to attend the Nitatadi concert is a joy and honor for Rida Sita Dewi," said Dewi Lestari.

According to Ronni, the concert is a moment to show their existence as a group, even for any musician or stage worker. “Nitatadi's Love World Concert; for Kawan” has also become one of the motivations for them after two years of being in one group, especially since the last two years stage performances were limited due to the pandemic.

"What is certain is that the goal is to show the existence of Nitatadi, even though it is said that he has only released two singles, why do you have a concert? But we will show that this is not just a concert,” said Ronni.
