JAKARTA - Hatna Danarda alias Arda officially left Naff. Through an Instagram upload, the 36-year-old singer declared her resignation from the band after 14 years as a vocalist.

Several Indonesian musicians who left the band chose not to make music anymore. Then, what about Arda?

The resignation did not mean that Arda left the world of music completely. Tantri Kotak's husband confirmed that he would continue to work with his abilities.

"After this, I will continue to work, make music again, live the lyrics that I made, release books again, have youtube content, social media, work with any channel that I guarantee will be much more honest and free from burdens and pressures," wrote Arda in a statement uploaded on Instagram, Friday, August 2.

Arda wants to stay close to fans who have been supporting her. He promised to bring out a lot of work which is expected to bring benefits.

"I make music because of my love, because I purely want to entertain, because of my intuition to share," said Arda.

"Furthermore, I am only as a head of family and father who wants to make a living for his family," he continued.

Arda still sees music as the way to support himself and his family. Moreover, his love for music is also great.

"But that's life, like it or not, there are always surprises and mysteries ahead," he said.

Meanwhile, Arda admitted that he had established himself to leave the band while undergoing the past pilgrimage.

Even though he has resigned from the band, said Arda, it does not mean that friendships that have been built with other personnel and crew must be cut off. He felt his decision as part of the dynamics of life that usually occurs.

If it is likened to a trip to a place but in the middle of the road the car tire leaks. What I remember is not just the moment of the leak, but it was a beautiful journey from the start of departure and every corner we have gone through is so deep full of memory.
