WhyKreeps, the dynamic South-African-born artist, returns with his highly anticipated single, “LIKE THAT”—a track that masterfully blends hard, relentless flows with smooth guitars and a catchy hook, enriched by soothing female vocals. The song showcases WhyKreeps’ lyrical prowess with football references and sharp bars, offering a glimpse into his outgoing personality and charisma.
Born in Johannesburg and raised in Pretoria, WhyKreeps moved to London at the age of 9, a shift that significantly influenced his versatility as both an artist and producer. His unique sound is rooted in his South-African heritage, and his move to the UK helped him develop a genre-defying approach that resonates on both sides of the globe.
Kreeps’ journey in music has been one of organic growth and discovery. With his South-African roots deeply embedded in his music, he began producing his own beats, which quickly gained local recognition. His sound took a new direction when he connected with John Souley, a producer from the Netherlands, forming a brotherhood that elevated Kreeps’ artistry to a new level.
In 2020, Kreeps made another bold move, relocating to Amsterdam where he became a part of the NEW SZN collective and released his single “Hello Hi.” Now, with “LIKE THAT,” WhyKreeps continues to explore his creativity, using music as an outlet to express his emotions, talent, and inspiring life story. His goal is to craft a distinctive sound that breaks boundaries and paves the way for others facing similar obstacles in the music industry.
Currently based in Amsterdam, WhyKreeps is living his dream and making waves in the European music scene. With his unique blend of hard-hitting lyricism and melodic hooks, he’s an artist to keep on your radar.
