Nadal was born in Buenos Aires, a fifth generation Argentinian with Angolan roots, his music has raised awareness and recognition of the rights of black Argentines.

He was heavily influenced by the music listened to by his parents: blues, soul, jazz & Caribbean rhythms. His ideology involves deep Rastafarian culture from countries like Jamaica and Haiti; one of his inspirations is Bob Marley, whom he credits for helping him shape his personal and musical identity.
