"Mulambo" is a song included on the second album Primitive, released in 2000. The song begins with Max Cavalera's then-little son Igor Jr. taunting 'daa daa'. The songplay resembles that of a typical Nirvana song, but with grooves, tribal drumming, and foosball sound effect by his another then-little son and now a Soulfly drummer, Zyon. It is sung in Portuguese and English with background vocals by The Mulambo Tribe, which is a Brazilian metal group that inspired this very song.

"Mulambo" is played in the film The Forsaken and its soundtrack album includes this song.
