JAKARTA - After introducing a series of music videos from his latest album, Divine's like "Broken Symphony", "You Are", and "As Great As Any Love" throughout 2024, Cakra Khan again pampers fans with the latest visual presentations.

This time, the song "Not In Line" which received the honor of being a music video treat. Cakra introduced it as a work that touches the most honest and sincere phase of the romance: the courage to let go.

The song "Not In Line" is one of the most emotional tracks on the Divine album. Created by trio Jaz Hayat, Bembong Rifky, and Gerry Anese, the song explores crucial moments when two people realize that love alone is not enough to become the foundation of a lasting relationship. Reality is often crueler than romance, and togetherness doesn't always lead to happiness.

This 'not in line' can mean more than just a breakup. Hopefully, many people can enjoy this song even though the story of this song is very sad," said Bembong in his statement, Thursday, October 23.

In line with that, Jaz Hayat added that when love has lost one vision and mission, it is very difficult for couples to achieve the same goal.

According to him, a relationship must be based on constructive communication. "Even though the hearts still have each other, their desires, hopes, or lives are different," added Jaz.

Meanwhile, Gerry Ange said, the emphasis on the importance of openness is the key message of this song. He emphasized that sincerity to let go, even though love still resides, is a manifestation of maturity so that the situation does not worsen.

"If something feels inappropriate, say it, don't keep it shut down, because it could be a time bomb that causes the story to get inconsistent and injures one party," said Gerry.

The visualization of "Not In Line" itself was worked on by director David Christover. The concept of the music video is designed to strengthen the meaning of the song through the bitter story of two people who were originally matched by the family.

The man, with all sincerity, tries to live and build love in the relationship. However, ahead of the wedding preparations, the woman slowly distances away. A bitter reality is revealed: his heart is still left in the love of the past.

The height of emotional conflict occurs when the man, with a very tough decision, chooses to end the relationship.

Cakra Khan himself interprets "Not In Line" as not just a broken heart song, but a reflection of a relationship that loses direction without essence.

"This song illustrates the point where one realizes that love alone is not enough to maintain a relationship that is no longer in line, but must be maturity and courage to release for the sake of mutual happiness," said Cakra.

The release of this music video confirms Cakra Khan's commitment to promoting the Divine album offer him a richer experience by presenting deep visuals and provoking contemplation. The "Not in line" audio version is already available on all digital music platforms as part of the Divine album, while the music video can be watched through Cakra Khan's official YouTube channel.
