Kreative Nativez is a progressive house/afro house duo consisting of producers/DJs comprising childhood friends Dj Blocks (John Mutale Nshimbi) and Tryybo (Jacob Kapaka Sinyangwe) from Lusaka in Zambia. With a love for House Music but mostly influenced by Afrohouse, Afrotech, Deep House as well as Retro Soulful house music, the duo has embraced their feel good electronic music sound that makes most people groove and move their feet. Influenced by the likes of Atjazz, Manoo and Black Coffee to name a few. The duo came on the scene with their own flair & vibe, unique original tracks & distinctive bootleg remixes which made the performances stand out. In 2017, they performed their first ever event at the Castle Lite Unlocks Black Motion as an opening act. In June of the same year they were on the lineup for the R&G Winter Warmer, where they dropped their breakout bootleg hit Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone Kreative Nativez Remix, a remix and tribute of the 1976 Motown cult classic by The Temptations. The song caught the attention of veteran South African producer/Dj Dj Cleo, who heard the song and asked the Kreative Nativez to send it to him, after which he uploaded a video of him playing it in the club and as they say the rest is history. Following the cosign, Dj Cleo went on to feature the Kreative Nativez on a track titled Native Get Down and featured Damans on vocals, his album Eskhaleni 11 which came out in October 2017.
