JAKARTA - Pamungkas raised his voice after his stage action became public blasphemy. He was blasphemed because he pinned the cellphone of a fan in a private area when he appeared.
Today, Monday, October 10, Pamungkas decided to talk. It took him a long time to decide because his team's mental condition declined after this incident.
Hello good night. How are you? I'm Pamungkas, good luck. This is what you're waiting for, I want to make a statement about what's going on right now," Pamungkas said in a video.
I've been silent for a few days because I'm gathering information and considering things. Is it necessary to talk. But last night something happened so I had to make this statement," he continued.
The To The Bone singer said his manager was admitted to the hospital. His condition declined after seeing public news about his artist.
Pamungkas also explained what the stage action meant. According to him, it was only part of the video that was cut and distributed from fan service to fans.
"First, what did I do? Why is it like that? It's a gig, it's a screen recorded video, cut, then fried. It's a fan service between me and a fan, part of the performance part of the stage action," said Pamungkas.
"It's the same as after the gig waiting for you to take a photo together, after taking 40 photos, usually someone asks for a birthday video, that's the same video for his sister," he explained.
Pamungkas compared his stage action with the actions of other musicians who were no less indecent. In addition, he also considered that there was no harassment.
"The second question is, but how come there is no ethics? First, Bang, look at the left right stage, what are the reports of those who demonstrated sexual activity and then sprayed them into the audience? There are also those who raise a glass filled with alcohol, there is also every song the same as a female fan invited to go on stage, hugged. How come you keep quiet?" he asked.
"When I was, it was a cellphone. It wasn't harassment to anyone, even cellphone harassment was, 'How come you don't have ethics?'" he continued.
Pamungkas also emphasized that he was not drunk or under the influence of drugs. He asked the public who accused him of asking the organizers for riders.
"Third, why is it a drunk person? Please check with EO whether there are riders here asking for a bottle, have you ever seen Pamungkas drunk at work? I've never been drunk at work. Even when I drink it's cold in Batu, Malang, because if it's cold the throat can't be elastic, I can't sing in bed," he said.
"This is the worst, he said. This is a drug, from my birth to today, I have never touched drugs. I can't prove it, but I can check it on the Pamungkas Instagram feed, in the past few months I bought a guitar, bought drums, upgraded the studio, bought and needed a budget. Yes, the budget is used to invest work. If it is used to make drugs or not," he said again.
This news made his manager go to the hospital due to stress. He also did not refuse if many blasphemed him but when it was disturbing his closest people, he could not stay silent.
"I'm not going anywhere, it's legal for people to have opinions, people don't like me, it's okay too. Last night one of my team was admitted to the hospital, this is my manager being admitted to the hospital, the ER because of his heart, he has shortness of breath, his back head is dizzy. When he was taken to the hospital, the doctor said this was a lot of thought, stress. This is a burden on his mind," he said.
"When it was detrimental to my people, I ran. If you have stepped on my principles, I can't, and this has already arrived there. So please, return the things to the context. Don't widen because this is already detrimental to my people," concluded Pamungkas.
