Early life and career
Afgansyah Reza was born on 27 May 1989 in Jakarta and into a Muslim musical family of Minangkabau origin, although he never had any vocal training.[2][3] He is the second of four children from Loyd Yahya and Lola Purnama. His career began when he and a few friends decided to record a private album at Wanna B Instant Recording Studio. The producers at the studio offered him a contract when they heard him sing.[2] His first album, Confession No.1, was a mix of jazz, pop, and R&B influences and including tracks, such as "Terima Kasih Cinta", "Klise", "Sadis", and "Tanpa Batas Waktu". A music video of the song "Terima Kasih Cinta" was produced by Thalita Latief and directed by Jose Purnomo. He won the Best Solo Male Vocalist Award for the song at the 2009 Anugerah Musik Indonesia. In 2009, he made his first foray into acting when he appeared in the film Bukan Cinta Biasa with Olivia Jensen[2] and he also sang the title track for the film's soundtrack. The next year, he also appeared in the film Cinta 2 Hati and performed on the film's soundtrack. His second album, The One, was released in January 2010. In 2011, he performed the theme song at the Southeast Asian Games.[4]
He has since then released 'Live to Love' album in 2013, followed by 'Sides' in 2016 and 'Dekade' in 2018. In November 2018, Afgan celebrated 10 years in the music industry by kicking off his Dekade concert in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia followed by another concert in Jakarta in September 2019. Both concerts were sold out.[5]
In 2020, Afgan together with Raisa released the single "Tunjukkan" five years after their first collaboration. Afgan had just released a new single on 6 February 2021, called "I'm sorry". His first global album "Wallflower", containing 10 tracks was released on 9 April 2021.[6]
Personal life
