ARTWORK: Kreativ

As West Florida’s underground rap scene continues to grow, we at CitrusRap continue to pursue new artist discovery. Based in Plant City by way of Tampa, self made designer, promotor, musician and screw DJ Kreativ, just dropped his 11 track EP DEATHWI5H, featuring his work with quite a handful of rising produces. Kreativ creates signature sound throughout DEATHWI5H which is fueled by modern trap, with a mix of airy, cloudy ambience and early 90s rap inspiration providing head nodding rhythm, raunchy lyrics and punchlines. The EP is full of melodic synths, heavy 808 bass drums and crisp snappy snares. The 25 year old creative describes his style as “a mix of lyrical with that tropical florida feel. Dark and trippy trap. It changes with the way I’m feeling as well as what im goin through. Lo-fi almost always.” Kreativ’s standout tracks “Changes”, “What Its Like” and “All Fuck Niggas Must” are definitely about his lifestyle, his earthly beliefs and all based on making boss moves in the game with Kreativ’s bravado painting a vividly descriptive portrait on every track. More from Kreativ’s is soon to come, trust.
