Biography

Gabrielly Nunes, known artistically as Gabz, was born in the neighborhood of Irajá, in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro, on March 29, 1999. Encouraged by her family since childhood, she began her artistic journey acting as a child actress in highly visible productions on national television and in film. Over the years, she expanded her work into music, standing out in the urban scene after going viral in spoken word competitions, traditional slam battles, and releasing original singles that dialogue with rap and MPB.

Her foray into music gained momentum with the release of independent tracks and prominent collaborations, such as her partnership with Baco Exu do Blues on the song "Nada Vai Nos Parar", in addition to singles like "Do Batuque ao Bass" and "Noite de Verão". Solidifying her presence in the music scene, Gabz gave a memorable performance on the Espaço Favela Stage at the Rock in Rio festival in 2019. At the same time, she has built a solid career as an actress, starring in highly acclaimed series and telenovelas, such as Malhação: Toda Forma de Amar, Da Ponte Pra Lá, and the primetime telenovela Mania de Você, in which she played the protagonist Viola.

Artistically versatile, Gabz moves naturally between acting and songwriting, maintaining a strong connection with the experiences of the Rio de Janeiro periphery that shaped her artistic sensitivity. She has established herself as one of the plural voices of her generation in Brazilian culture, uniting the power of contemporary rap with drama. With a constantly expanding career, she continues to broaden her repertoire both on stage and on screen.
