After introducing the excitement of falling in love through “Gerilya Cinta,” Kaleb J continues the story of his Tanda Cinta EP with its second single, “I Found You.”
Rather than focusing on the search for love, the song celebrates the moment when long-held prayers and dreams finally become reality.
Kaleb J Continues the Story of Tanda Cinta
Kaleb J revealed that he never intended “I Found You” to serve as a direct continuation of “Gerilya Cinta.”
As the songs came together, however, he realized they naturally formed a connected narrative.
The journey begins with quietly falling in love and ends with the realization that the right person has finally arrived.
The song was inspired by a reflective moment in Kaleb J’s life.
He reflected on past relationships that never worked out. Instead of holding on to disappointment, he chose gratitude.
That moment inspired him to write about the hope of one day finding his soulmate.
Kaleb J wrote “I Found You” with Belanegara Abe and Sumantri Limin, two collaborators he describes as legends in his musical journey.
The song began as a demo that Kaleb J created at home before sharing it with Abe.
After receiving a positive response, they refined the composition together, polished the lyrics, and completed the mixing process with Sumantri Limin.
The result is a song shaped through mutual trust and creative collaboration.

Returning to His Signature Sound
Musically, “I Found You” brings Kaleb J back to the pop R&B style that first introduced him to many listeners.
Lush string arrangements add another layer of emotion to the song. They also give the production a warmer and more comforting feel.
The lyrics also blend Indonesian and English naturally.
According to Kaleb J, this bilingual approach has always been part of his songwriting style because it adds more flavor and emotion to the music.
One of the song’s central lines, “Kamu jadi milikku selama lamanya,” carries three meanings for the singer.
He describes it as a commitment, a promise, and a prayer for a relationship that will last forever with the right person.
The bridge delivers another heartfelt message through the lyric, “tak ku minta dunia, karena kau lah impian.”
For Kaleb J, the line is not about rejecting the world.
Instead, it reflects the understanding that genuine love, inner peace, and happiness are more valuable than material success.
Celebrating Love in Everyday Life
The accompanying music video reflects the song’s message by focusing on the simple moments shared between two people.
Instead of showcasing luxury or grand romantic gestures, it highlights the comfort and happiness found in everyday life.
Kaleb J hopes “I Found You” resonates with everyone. For couples, he wants it to become a celebration of gratitude.
For those still searching for love, he hopes it serves as a reminder that hope remains alive and that sincere prayers are always worth believing in.
With “I Found You,” Kaleb J continues to expand the narrative of his Tanda Cinta EP.
The story has now moved from the first spark of love in “Gerilya Cinta” to the certainty of finding the right person.
As for what comes next, Kaleb J prefers to keep that chapter a mystery for now.
