In between singing for Krakatau and jazz pop Adegan band in 1991, Hari released several solo albums, which produced several hit songs, such as the pop rock track “Ada Kamu” ( 1988 ).
His last commercial album, released in 1996, was Di Sini. Hari then immersed himself in religion and became better known as a preacher in the latter part of his life.
