Melanie Subono

Melanie Subono is a trailblazing Indonesian musician, activist, and multi-hyphenate creative who’s been shaking up the scene since her late-'90s debut. Known for her punk-rock spirit and genre-blending sound (mixing rock, ska, and traditional Indonesian influences), she’s built a reputation as a rebel with a cause—using her music to tackle social issues, political satire, and themes of freedom. Tracks like *Bebas Merdeka* and *Kita Kawan Bukan Lawan* showcase her trademark fiery energy and socially conscious lyrics, while collaborations like *Friendship* highlight her collaborative streak.

Beyond music, Melanie’s a force in TV/film and entrepreneurship, never afraid to speak her mind on LGBTQ+ rights or environmental causes. Her recent releases, including the cheeky *Aku Si Bodoh* and the Chacken M tribute *Indonesia Jaya*, prove she’s still pushing boundaries decades into her career. Whether she’s rocking stages or advocating for change, Melanie Subono remains a loud, proud voice in Indonesian pop culture.
