Kenyan-born, London-based artist Rick Ochi delivers a sun-drenched Afrobeats anthem with his vibrant new single “Creepin’ (Kama Paka)”, released just in time for summer 2025. The track pulses with infectious energy, blending English and Swahili lyrics to craft a playful yet seductive narrative about magnetic attraction. The Swahili phrase “Kama Paka” (Like a Cat) adds a layer of cultural authenticity, showcasing Ochi’s ability to weave his Kenyan roots into globally appealing Afrobeats production.
Built on a foundation of bouncing rhythms and bright melodies, “Creepin’ (Kama Paka)” marks a natural evolution for the multi-genre artist, following the success of his previous single “Jina”. Ochi’s confident, conversational flow—honed through years in London’s underground scene—shines here, balancing Hip-Hop swagger with Amapiano-infused grooves. The track’s high-spirited vibe mirrors its inspiration: a real-life encounter charged with flirtation and chemistry.
Having cut his teeth with projects like Different Avenues: The Tape (2021) and genre-defying singles like “Move” and “What I’m On”, Ochi continues to push boundaries. “Creepin’ (Kama Paka)” solidifies his place as an innovator in the Afrobeats space, proving his knack for crafting music that’s as rhythmically irresistible as it is culturally rich.
