jgn krn gw baek is a hip-hop work from Basboi, the artist born Baskara Rizqullah, whose career and discography have centered the nuanced, often unspoken experiences of Indonesian teens and 20-somethings navigating the messy transition out of youth and into early adulthood. Basboi first launched his professional music career in 2017, building a foundational audience across his home country with a string of standout standalone singles, including “Cozy,” “Dying Breed,” and “Night Drive,” that laid the creative groundwork for his first official project, the 2019 debut EP Fresh Graduate, released in March of that year. That debut EP centered the specific, relatable struggles of Indonesian teenagers, a thematic throughline that would carry through every subsequent release he built, including his first full-length album, Adulting For Dummies, a project framed as an intimate coming-of-age story that draws directly from his own lived experiences navigating life as a 20-something building a life in Jakarta.
