Rama Moektio, CEO of Kayana Delapan, said there would be a surprise from Iwa K. “There will be positive messages that he wants to deliver throughout his music career with the official hashtag #Indonesiawithattitude,” said Rama, adding that the dress code for the night would be ‘hip-hop style’.

Iwa K's music career began back in 1993 with his debut album Kuingin Kembali (I Want to Go Back). His second album, Topeng (Mask, 1994), received a BASF award. In 2004, his song "Nombok Dong" was included on the soundtrack of thriller film Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid. In February this year, Iwa K released his new single, "Sans", which he composed alongside Jonathan "Jones" Mono and wrote the lyrics for.
