"When I see… when I hear the collection of songs, there are indeed a lot of hits. I said that Rossa's concert was really a music concert. I don't think Rossa needs any gimmicks or tricks because that's what people are waiting for Rossa."

Singer, Producer & Politician Anang Hermansyah said Rossa was a complete Diva.

"Really timeless. The great thing about Rossa is that she is not just a singer, but an entrepreneur in the entertainment field. So I think she's a very complete Diva. And I'm always proud to have a singer like Rossa in Indonesia."

Meanwhile, Music Arranger "Tohpati," said that Rossa was a true hits maker.

"Previously, I have handled concerts in Jakarta for big artists or singers, almost all of Rossa's hits from 3 CDs. To choose a song is not too difficult because all of them are hits."

Aside from being a pop singer, Rossa is also able to sing traditional Sundanese songs, dangdut, hip-hop, EDM & r&b. Rossa has also recorded songs in other language such as Malay, English, and Korean. Actress and entertainer Nagita Slavina called Rossa the "Diva Millenial Indonesia" because even though Rossa's songs were not released in the streaming era, her songs are still well known among kids from Generation Z.[153] Meanwhile, singer Raisa said Rossa was a singer who always existed in every generation.[154]

Singer & songwriter who graduated with a music degree in Singapore, Isyana Sarasvati, said that Rossa is an inspirational figure because she has a perfect musical side as a singer.

"Teh Ocha is someone who I think is, yes, the character of her voice, and her vocal technique is very, very good in my personal opinion because she has an engaging style, her hignote vocal practice is shrill but looks super relaxed. And the sound is very sharp, shrill belting, which I don't have the method myself. For me, the technique can be shrill but classic, different from her hignote vocal. Those are the people I admire. That's really cool."[155]
