"I am completely against any kind of violence of any kind and I hope it will be a peaceful protest where people can calmly express what they think."
The protest led by the largest organized fans in the country is scheduled for this Saturday (22), at 10 am, in front of the Parque São Jorge headquarters. Fans are asking for judicial intervention in Corinthians and have already held other demonstrations in recent days, such as last Wednesday (19), in front of the São Paulo Public Ministry.

Dear Corinthians Fans
I see the great impact of my art in the form of the music I just released.
I want to tell all of you that this was done months ago and it is just art.
I understand that there is a protest tomorrow, and everyone has the right to protest, but please do not misinterpret my message.
I am completely against any kind of violence of any kind and I hope it is a peaceful protest where people can calmly express what they think.
About my music, I insist:
IT'S JUST ART!!
