Daniel Williams-Hashemi, better known by his stage name DanimaL is an English rapper from Sheffield, England, influenced by the boombap sound and conscious style hiphop. Described as a "high-viz clad mentalist" by UKHH, DanimaL has released one album, two EP's and numerous singles.

He has featured on various well-known British hip hop YouTube channels including, but not limited to, GlobalFaction, JDZMedia, Ukhh, P110 Media and Northside Media TV.
