Indonesian RAPPER, Dex Pines, finally released his first single in 2024 entitled Dream, which is the first release following his hiatus.
Dreams generally tell regarding a person’s anxiety regarding the obstacles they face and what they will face in the future.
“Life is full of mysteries and challenges. “Every morning we will be faced with different challenges,” said Dex Pines. “However, when all (problems) come your way, what’s wrong with someone continuing to dream?”
Starting with this narrative, the rapper whose real name is Ridho Ibrahim has packaged his latest single with nostalgic and calming tunes.

“With full awareness, I did this so that the message in this song might be conveyed completely,” explained Dex Pines. “With lyrics that are straightforward and straight-forward, it is hoped that listeners will understand, without needing to read snippets of the lyrics or dissect them in depth.”
Being the first song following a hiatus, Dream returns to bring the nuances of the first album, Suara (2020) with a touch of Jazz and Soul obtained through sampling.
This is a representation of Dex Pines’ identity as a rapper and producer.

“Growing up listening to Kendrick Lamar and MF DOOM made me fall in love with Hip Hop with a touch of 90s Jazz and the raw energy in it,” explained Dex Pines. “Therefore, I, along with the material that has been released and will be released in the future, will bring the Hip Hop nuance that I recognize and like.”
This song can be heard on various digital streaming platforms along with a lyric video on the Dex Pines YouTube channel.
The Dream lyric video was made in line with the raw concept, namely using a looping video with lyrics added to it. (RO/Z-1)
