JAKARTA - The issue of Indonesian Music Wahana with Ari Lasso is still ongoing. The former vocalist of Dewa 19 has not run out of material to criticize the performance of one of the largest Collective Management Institutions (LMK) operating in Indonesia.
As is known, Ari Lasso began criticizing WAMI's performance last week, when he received a royalty distribution report of Rp765,594. What irritated him even more, in the report, the name Muthoillah Rizal Affandi was written.
WAMI also conveyed clarification, admitting that there was an error in sending reports via email. However, they stated that there was no error in the distribution of royalties, in which the royalties were addressed to Muthoillah, not Ari Lasso.
Then, through the latest upload on his Instagram account, Ari revealed the nominal royalties he received, which turned out to be smaller than the Muthoillah team.
"Thank you WAMI for the email response, which turned out to be not long after the transfer email to Mr. Muthoillah. I am still grateful to receive a blessing which turned out to be even smaller, namely Rp. 497 (900)," Ari wrote, citing the description of the upload, Tuesday, August 19.
In satirical tone, the 52-year-old singer said the royalties obtained from WAMI in the span of three months were much smaller than what she gave to Ricky Five Minutes, the author of the song "Hampa", "Arti Cinta", If only, and Hati Peace in one show.

"Thank you, this is proof that you are working," said Ari. And you also apologize. I'm sorry.
"How come I can listen, I transferred Ricky Five Minutes, once a show of IDR 1.5 million. The bottom of it is a hundred thousand from, put my 10 hits for 3 months," he continued. I don't believe in a coincidence.
Furthermore, Ari questioned how WAMI distributed royalties to its members
"But the essence of this problem remains unanswered. What formula makes my royalties smaller than Mr. Muthoillah," he said.
"I with full awareness without anger (personal nothing) and my friends want to get socialization of your calculation formula technique. Of course, after we as citizens who are orderly in paying for the obligation to do #AUDITWAMI openly by the institution we appointed. That's all the responses of friends who called me," concluded Ari Lasso.
