Tribal Kush

About

From the islands to the world, Tribal Kush has become one of the driving forces behind the global rise of Euro Dancehall — a high-energy fusion of Dancehall, Afro, Latin and Caribbean sounds blended with the raw energy of Dutch club culture. As core players behind Riddim Nation, the duo continues to push Caribbean music into new territories while building a sound recognized worldwide. Originally connecting in Groningen after Gordito moved from Aruba to the Netherlands in 2015, the duo quickly built a reputation for explosive DJ sets, heavy productions and a unique Caribbean-rooted identity. Their breakout records like Call The Police and Ram Pam generated millions of streams, but it was the global hit Bad that launched Tribal Kush onto the international stage — amassing over 40 million YouTube views, more than 30 million Spotify streams and viral success across TikTok. Their production work has connected them with some of the biggest names in global music, including Major Lazer, Diplo, French Montana, The Black Eyed Peas and Carlos Vives. Tribal Kush received Grammy recognition for their contribution to Bam Bam and later became Latin Grammy winners through their work on Cumbiana II, contributing to the track El Teke Teke alongside Play-N-Skillz. Known for bringing Caribbean energy into electronic music spaces, Tribal Kush has performed across Europe and South America, including tours through Colombia, Chile, Germany, Belgium, Italy and the Netherlands. Beyond the stage, the duo continues shaping the future of Euro Dancehall with their energetic performances, forward-thinking productions and unmistakable island influence. With their signature slogan “Giv Dem What They Want,” Tribal Kush represents a new generation of Caribbean electronic music — global, energetic and unapologetically original.
