MC Hariel wears unreleased Corinthians Sabotage collaboration shirt at Neo Química Arena festival | OneFootball

MC Hariel drew attention at the Festival Melhor Dia on Saturday, taking the stage at the Neo Química Arena in an as yet unreleased Corinthians shirt created in partnership with Sabotage.

The piece is part of a special club collection honouring a leading figure in Brazilian rap, predominantly white with black vertical pinstripes and Sabotage’s name printed below the chest in his signature typography. According to Meu Timao, the collection is expected to be launched in the week of Sabotage’s birthday, on 3 April, or close to that date.

The tribute underlines Corinthians’ historic bond with Sabotage, a declared fan who died on 24 January 2003. He identified with the club’s roots in São Paulo’s peripheries, sharing values of resistance, popular identity and cultural expression.

The fourth edition of the urban-culture festival, focused on rap, trap and funk, ran through the afternoon at the Casa do Povo, with gates opening at 14:30 and shows stretching into the night in Itaquera. The line-up included Underground: Yego & Friends, Franco, The Sir, Budah, Brandão, Nanda Tsunami, Meno K, Matuê, Edi Rock, BK’, Alee and Tovitz.

Beyond the music, organisers staged sports activations, notably the first Copa Melhor Dia. A court was set up in the stadium car park for the public to play football and three-on-three basketball.

The arena has hosted similar events before, including Cena 2K and the Vira Brasil Music Festival in 2025, cementing its role as a major cultural venue in the city.
