Bingkai Karya – Indonesian singer-songwriter Idgitaf has reached a significant milestone in her musical career after winning three awards at the 2026 Anugerah Musik Indonesia (AMI Awards) through her second studio album, ‘Berusaha di Bawah Hujan’. Beyond celebrating her achievements, Idgitaf sees this recognition as an opportunity to draw attention to the social realities facing Indonesian communities and emphasize the importance of empathy and solidarity.
The achievement marks Idgitaf’s first-ever AMI Awards wins since beginning her musical journey. Out of six nominations, she secured three awards: Best Album Production for ‘Berusaha di Bawah Hujan’, Best Folk/Country/Ballad Production for her song “Sedia Aku Sebelum Hujan”, and Music Fans’ Choice Lyric Video in the YouTube Favorite category. The recognition highlights her consistency in delivering music that combines strong musicality with meaningful storytelling.
Released in May 2026, ‘Berusaha di Bawah Hujan’ has accumulated more than 409 million streams on Spotify. Its strong reception reflects the connection listeners have found with the album’s exploration of human relationships, vulnerability, and emotional resilience. Among its standout tracks are “Sedia Aku Sebelum Hujan”, “Masih Ada Cahaya”, a collaboration with Hindia, and “Mendung”, a recently released collaboration with Yura Yunita.
For Idgitaf, however, the recognition carries a significance beyond personal success. She believes that the moment should also serve as a platform to acknowledge the difficulties experienced by others, particularly amid Indonesia’s current social circumstances.
“My journey to reach this stage has never been easy. There have been many ups and downs along the way. When that hard work was finally recognized by the AMI Awards, I felt that such a valuable moment should not be used solely to celebrate myself. I want to use this platform to give a voice to struggles much greater than my own, especially considering the situation in Indonesia today, which has been difficult for many people. This work was born out of concern, and I want to remind everyone that no matter how difficult things become, we need to continue caring for and looking after one another,” Idgitaf said.
She reinforced this message during her acceptance speech for the prestigious Best Album Production award, drawing attention to the contrasting realities of people affected by environmental disasters.
“Outside, there are people who deeply hate the rain because of landslides and floods. There are also those who desperately long for rain because of forest fires. Although they experience different circumstances in their relationship with rain, there is one thing they have in common. They need restoration and accountability,” she stated.
Through ‘Berusaha di Bawah Hujan’, Idgitaf demonstrates how music can extend beyond personal expression and become a reflection of wider social
