JAKARTA - After surprising the music industry in the country with the release of the song "Republik Fufufafa" at the end of the year, Slank took a step further to ensure that his new single was heard by many people.
The band based in Potlot started 2026 by holding a contest, where netizens on social media were invited to cover the song "Republik Fufufafa".
"It's time for you to see unlimited creativity," wrote Slank, quoting the description of an Instagram upload, Friday, January 2.
There are several points that Bimbim cs asked for the participants to follow the cover contest, namely the cover of the song is done as good, as cool, as creative as possible.
"Make it as free as possible as long as you keep your decency," said the band known for its critical songs.
Covers can be done alone or as a group, do not require musical instruments, and even allow the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
The results of the cover of "Republik Fufufafa" are required to be uploaded to Instagram, by tagging the @slankdotcom account and giving the #SayembaraRepublikFufufafa hashtag.
Later, Slank personnel will choose ten winners from this competition, who will receive official merchandise and their videos will be aired on Slank's official social media.
Meanwhile, the tender will take place between January 1 - 15. The winner will be announced on January 19.
For information, the lyrics of "Republik Fufufafa" contain a sharp criticism of Slank, like their past hits, such as "Gosip Jalanan", "Orkes Sakit Hati", "Like the Corruptors", to "Empty Tong".
But the lyrics also contain metaphors and subtle allusions to policy makers, implicitly highlighting negative practices such as gambling and drug dependence.
