JAKARTA In an interview with Gofar Hilman on the Prost Club TV channel on YouTube some time ago, Piyu said, Padi was rejected by the record label Aquarius Musikindo because of Ahmad Dhani's words.

The Padi guitarist said that it all started when he came to Aquarius with Ari to play the song Padi to Pak Iin as a music producer.

At that time, I came to Aquarius with Ari, Padi's guitarist, and I met the late Mr. Iin. We're all listening to this, it's really cool. Then he said, "His voice is like Ari Lasso," he said.

Suddenly, Ahmad Dhani came and rejected Padi.

Then from the outside door someone entered. Ahmad Dhani didn't know. Because he's an artist Aquarius. His gold son," he said.

"He said this, Mr. Iin, you don't have to accept it, sir. It's not good, "said Ahmad Dhani to Mr. Iin.

Seeing this, Piyu was disappointed with the words of the 19th Dewa frontman.

"Don't be rude. He should be a friend to help me. Already know us. At that time I was Andra's guitar technician, right," he explained.

"At least when he came in, come on, Mr. Iin, help him. He's my friend from Surabaya. This is not. Maybe he's kidding. But people don't know," he added.

As a result, Piyu and Padi did not receive any news from Aquarius Musikindo.

"Finally, it doesn't happen. There's no news at all that's gone," he concluded.
