JAKARTA – Popular Indonesian band D’MASIV has officially severed ties with RANS Entertainment for their ongoing Asia Home Run tour. Instead, the group has transferred all management responsibilities to promoter Antara Suara. The band announced this decision on November 3, 2026, following strong reactions from their fanbase regarding RANS’s involvement.
Fan Backlash Sparks Promotor Change
The shift started when public criticism targeted Raffi Ahmad, co-founder of RANS Entertainment alongside Nagita Slavina. On October 29, 2026, Raffi attended a Deklarasi Sumpah Pemuda (Youth Pledge Declaration) event with university students. Shortly after the event, social media users voiced outrage and launched a widespread boycott campaign against him.
Although Raffi clarified that he attended strictly as an invited professional guest without knowing the organizer’s agenda, the public outcry quickly spread to affiliated businesses. Soon, D’MASIV fans questioned the band’s partnership with RANS on Threads.
Band and New Promoter Confirm the Transition
The band reacted promptly to these public concerns. The band’s official account directly addressed a fan’s inquiry, confirming that Antara Suara had fully assumed control of the tour operations. “Our promoter has been taken over by @antara.suara, so we are no longer affiliated with RANS,” the group stated. Shortly after, Antara Suara issued their own statement, confirming their new role as primary promoter for the tour.
The Asia Tour Moves Forward
Despite the sudden change behind the scenes, D’MASIV remains committed to their concert schedule. The band successfully kicked off the tour in late October and will proceed to Singapore and Malaysia in November. Finally, they will wrap up the Asia Home Run tour with a major concert in Jakarta in December 2026. This promoter switch allows the band to focus entirely on their music and reconnect with fans across Asia.
