Sobrevivendo no Inferno is the fourth studio album of the Brazilian rap group Racionais MC's, released in December 1997.The album reached the mark of 1,500,000 copies sold, despite having been released by an independent record label.[1] Sobrevivendo no Inferno was ranked 14th on the 100 Greatest Brazilian music albums of Rolling Stone magazine.[2]
A feature in the album is the presence of Biblical-inspired lyrics, as in the songs "Genesis" and "Capítulo 4, Versículo 3" (both by Mano Brown). The album is also heavy on lyrics discussing to social inequalities, poverty and racism. The big hits were "Diário de Um Detento" (based on the diary of Jocenir, former inmate of the Carandiru prison), "Fórmula Mágica da Paz" and "Mágico de Oz" (Edy Rock). The group also paid tribute to the singer Jorge Ben Jor, rewriting "Jorrge da Capadócia." The musical arrangements are simple, with a basic drum and some keyboard melody.
