At Lollapalooza, Oruam asks for freedom from his father, Marcinho VP, leader of CV

In December, Oruam shared with his followers that he had his father’s face tattooed on the left side of his chest. The musician, who has the entire left side of his chest tattooed, also tattooed the face of his “uncle” Elias Maluco — convicted of the death of journalist Tim Lopes and found dead in the federal prison of Catanduvas (PR), in 2020 — on his stomach.

Despite defending his father on social media, Oruam emphasizes that he “has nothing to do” with the crimes committed by his father. Furthermore, the rapper states that Marcinho VP “is the best father in the world” and that he usually visits him in jail, in Paraná.

I go to visit my dad and he gets all silly. He says that the police officers there talk about me to him, that I went to Neymar’s house. Imagine for him. He suffered like hell, he’s there, paying for everything he did. Nobody can say anything. And my dad. Vagabundo says a lot of nonsense, trying to ‘denigate’ my image because of him. He did the mess he did, I have nothing to do with it. I rocked not saying anything to my father, I rocked with my music, alone.
— Oruam in an interview with the PodPah podcast

Splash was unable to contact Oruam’s advisors to ask for a position. The space remains open for demonstrations.

Who is Marcinho VP?
