“I can not explain the size of being in Rock in Rio, or being in Lollapalooza, or being in The Town, right? The size of an event to be in an event like this is the size samba deserves. We will be happy in life for the invitation and, as I always say, opening doors for others to arrive too.
The presentation promises to merge genres, as Pericles will share the broken stage with Dexter, one of the main names in the history of national rap. Paulista defended the mix of genres and the desire to make music with the rapper.
