Musician and comedian Hifdzi Khoir delivered a chaotic and memorable set at the Pestapora music festival on September 26, 2026, at JIEXPO Kemayoran, Jakarta Pusat, where his performance of his solo track “Istri” was hijacked by audience members singing Nidji’s “Laskar Pelangi” instead. According to reporter Pingkan Anggraini of detikcom, the crowd immediately interrupted the romantic intro of Hifdzi’s song by shouting the famous lyrics, “..adalah kunci untuk kita membuka dunia!”
Crowd Hijacks Solo Track With Unexpected Mashup
Hifdzi’s attempt to build a serious musical atmosphere during his performance of tracks from his solo album, Jalan Kaki, was immediately derailed by festivalgoers. The crowd’s habit of creating unexpected mashups across different musical universes drew an exasperated, comedic reaction from the stage.
“Sumpah gak dikasih kesempatan! Allah ya Rabbi, dalam hidup ini berilah kesempatan kepada orang lain! Jangan kau ingin bernyanyi dengan kata dirimu sendiri! Orang ini bikin lagu susah loh. Kapan saya menyanyikan lagu-lagunya?!” Hifdzi shouted from the stage, prompting loud laughter from the crowd.
Ananta Rispo Crashes the Stage in Firefighter Gear
The comedic chaos escalated when Hifdzi’s close friend, Ananta Rispo, unexpectedly joined him on stage. Rispo appeared wearing a complete firefighter uniform rather than standard performance attire, turning the concert setting into an impromptu stand-up comedy showcase.
“Tetangga saya manggung. Senyum sih Hif, mumpung di panggung,” Rispo said while recording the moment on his mobile phone.
