Adung Abdulgani

Like a car, musicians are the main engine in the dangdut tarling (dangdut played door to door) industry. Ironically, they actually get the smallest fortune. Adung Abdulgani, a versatile artist from Indramayu, mobilized the dangdut tarling artists to fight for royalties.

Adung\'s face was excited when he showed a message from a music aggregator who had just transferred the royalty payment for using dangdut tarling songs on YouTube. The amount is not much, only a few million rupiah. However, for Adung and the dangdut tarling artists, the royalty payments made them more optimistic about the future.
