Of course you will be amazed to know that the boy with the photo wearing a toga at his student graduation is a top musician. It was written at the graduation location that he had studied as a santri in Yogyakarta on September 22 1996. Yes, the boy in question was Rian D'masiv .
Before working in Jakarta, Rian D'masiv enjoyed his childhood in Kaliurang, Yogyakarta. In high school, he had ambitions of becoming a famous musician. He also formed a band with his friends. Unfortunately, Rian's journey to a career as a musician was not easy.
He once experienced the hardships of nomadic life (moving from place to place). At that time, the owner of the name Rian Ekky Pradipta also couldn't eat well all the time. Even to eat fried chicken, he only has the opportunity once per month.

Not only that, he also used to busk on the side of the road with his band mates to make ends meet. What's even sadder is that even to practice in the studio to take part in the band festival you have to owe the studio owner a debt.
" In 2003, I started a band.. I was singing along on the bus to pay for rehearsals in the studio.. I took part in band festivals and rented equipment at a music studio because I couldn't buy musical instruments yet.. I also paid the rent if I won the festival, then I paid... if not "If you win, you'll have to go into debt first and get a profit from having a good studio. In 2008 my dream came true @dmasivbandofficial signed with my dream label from when I was little @musicastudios after we won 1st place at the national festival out of 3000 bands that took part in the festival ," wrote Rian, Saturday (17 /2).
Now, fried chicken is no longer a special menu for Rian D'Masiv. He no longer busked on the side of the road to make ends meet. Success with the band D'masiv has improved his quality of life.

" Music can support me until now... my dreams, hopes and prayers... music can make my family prosperous for up to 7 generations ," he added.
Thanks to the success of his songs with D'masiv, Rian was able to earn a high income. The fee for a single gig with the band is estimated at IDR 100 million. Not to mention his income from his culinary business and personal YouTube adsense.

It's not surprising that he was able to build a house estimated at IDR 20 billion. His luxury house has a modern classic style with strong white nuances. Interestingly, he has a swimming pool in the front yard of his house, which covers an area of approximately 400 square meters.
