Biography

Daniel Korn, known professionally as Cabal, is a Brazilian rapper and songwriter born in São Paulo. His early exposure to hip hop began during his childhood in Brooklyn, New York, before returning to Brazil to establish himself in the domestic music scene. He initially gained prominence as a member of the group Motirô alongside DJ Hum and Lino Crizz, with whom he released popular tracks like "Senhorita".

In 2006, Cabal released his debut solo commercial album, PROva Cabal, which explored a more dance-oriented style of hip hop and featured samples from legendary MPB artists like Roberto Carlos and Erasmo Carlos. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with a diverse array of artists across genres, including country duo Chitãozinho & Xororó on the song "Vida Marvada", as well as hip hop figures like Emicida, MC Marechal, and Rappin' Hood.
