Pop stalwart Melly Goeslaw is known for her poignant lyricism and eccentric visuals, traits she exuded as frontwoman for alt-pop unit Potret in the ’90s and in her massive solo career. The success of her 1999 self-titled album and the explosive triumph of 2002’s Ada Apa Dengan Cinta soundtrack laid a foundation for years of unforgettable pop grooves. Goeslaw’s grand, passionate voice has an emotional grit that gives distinction to lively rockers like “Kubahagia” and the Potret-era ode to motherhood “Bunda”—cementing her legacy as one of the most important artists in Indonesia.
