Anak Putih Abu Abu (meaning High School Kids) is the second Indonesian-language studio album by Indonesian singer Anggun. The album was released in 1991, by Harpa Records.
Following the release of a series of commercially successful singles, including "Mimpi," "Tua-Tua Keladi," and "Takut," and contributing to the Si Roy soundtrack between 1989 and 1990, Anggun released her second studio album after Dunia Aku Punya.
The album was notably subtitled "100% Baru" (100% New) on original cassette sleeve as a protest against the producers who unauthorizedly re-issued and compiled her earlier material, including the 1990 release of the album Kepada Alam dan Pencintanya by Musica, which featured recordings from 1983.[1]

The album was supported by the release of the singles "Nafas Cinta" and "Anak Putih Abu Abu". The music video for the lead single, "Nafas Cinta," received airplay on the national television network, TVRI. Commercially, the album's success contributed to Anggun being named the Most Popular Indonesian Artist for 1990–1991 by Popular Magazine.[2]
