Dr. Creep is the stage name of an underground hip-hop artist from Tucson, Arizona (real name not publicly disclosed for privacy reasons).
Active in the underground rap scene since the late 2000s/early 2010s.
Known for dark, horrorcore-style lyrics heavily influenced by zombie/apocalypse movies, conspiracy theories, and dystopian themes.
Part of a loose collective of underground rappers and producers (collaborated frequently with Lone Ninja, DJ Madhandz, and others).
Released numerous mixtapes and albums on platforms like Bandcamp and DatPiff, often with titles like The Dead Era, Plague, and Pandemic.
Why most people know him today:
In 2013, he dropped the song “Pandemic” (feat. Lone Ninja), which contains the now-infamous line:
“2020 combined with coronavirus, bodies stacking”
When COVID-19 exploded in 2020, the song went ultra-viral (tens of millions of views across TikTok, YouTube, and Reddit). Many viewers thought it was a deliberate prediction or leaked insider info.
Dr. Creep has repeatedly clarified in interviews (No Jumper podcast, his own YouTube channel, Instagram Live, etc.) that:
It was pure coincidence. (public reaction: Why mention 2020?)
He was just writing horror-rap lyrics based on documentaries, conspiracy videos, and the fact that coronaviruses (SARS, MERS) were already in the news.
The year 2020 was chosen because of the post-2012 “end of the world” hype. (public reaction: Why choose 2020?)
Since the viral moment, he has gained a much larger following, continues to release music, and occasionally leans into the “pandemic prophet” meme for fun, but always stresses it was never an actual prediction.

Connecting the Dots: From YouTube to Reality
Here are the full lyrics to “Pandemic” by Dr. Creep (feat. Lone Ninja), released in 2013:
They always start with a kind of storm You know, a powerful storm And there’s always this This dark, thick rain like-like fresh motor oil Storm started, somethin’ happened His face, his eyes were-, were, uh, different By the time they tried to evacuate the cities It was already too late The infection was everywhere The virus is harvesting, what do you mean H7N3? Begin life in a lab in the first war of vaccines Million die in the first week in the pandemic dreams Reality, black death, smallpox, mutated disease Flu-shot propaganda for all population and troops Avoid the plague, it might have seeped into the room It’s now airborne with firestorm, signaling our doom The dead returns with a pissed off zombie mood The sprinkler system equipped with AuAg Where they round up survivors in a cold facility Watch the process of terror from the hill near the stream I remain in a gas mask, I still filter my water clean This isn’t past tense or the plague of Athens Couldn’t be eradicated like smallpox in action Avian influenza in the Jetstream is how it happens 2020 combined with coronavirus, bodies stacking The world is now at the start of the influenza pandemic It started as rioting It was in the street outside It was coming through windows Sequence the virus and determine its origin It was a virus Something in the blood A virus which has been engineered at a genetic level To be helpful rather than harmful This city’s sick like disease and it can’t be cured Few that remained, their brain’s stained with the bloodshed In a smokescreen state Death, disease You feel a burning sensation Nothing remains This city’s sick like disease and it can’t be cured Few that remained, their brain’s stained with the bloodshed In a smokescreen state Death, disease You feel a burning sensation You’ll have to act fast, grab your gas mask Bad disaster has passed Anarchy, cataclysm Stand guard please, blast your big guns Havoc’s begun, viral outbreak Tragic things done, crowds renounce faith Atrocious horror witnessed, broke the hopes of optimistic Scope is post-apocalyptic Lone is harsh and vicious, gross and darker Throwing darts, blow apart the wicked Foes know I’m sadistic Cold, my aura is sick, soldiers start resistance Enemy troops in NBC suits We shoot, then we regroup Conquer weak with armed fleet Bomb the streets with Dr. Creep The scientific criteria for an influenza pandemic have been met You need a doctor to tell you that This virus is human Radio stopped broadcasting There were reports of infection in Paris to New York The army blockades were overrun (What scientists know about this new strain) Decided to raise the level of influenza pandemic alert This city’s sick like disease and it can’t be cured Few that remained, their brain’s stained with the bloodshed In a smokescreen state Death, disease You feel a burning sensation Nothing remains This city’s sick like disease And it can’t be cured Few that remained Their brain’s stained with the bloodshed In a smokescreen state Death, disease You feel a burning sensation Can I look at one of these gas masks? (Sure, what do you wanna look at?)
DR CREEP “BIOHAZARD”
(I have signed an executive order Initiating a new territory in quarantine) Biological terror and weaponized order Nuclear too costly, they bio-chemical supportive Injection afforded, the mutations recorded New world elite create nemesis and move toward it And from the shadows of the forest The weapons I’m sent to seize The chaos I live and breathe hazardous like bioweaponry Large scale quarantines take notice by trial70

Notes of file 7-3, procedures so nothing leaves Bodies fall in an avalanche The virus is that advanced Outta rounds stab a man Now stacked with AK’s mad in vans Get used to the aftermath or get cooked like Zatarain’s You burn where the cabin stands hazardous with a phantom stance The lies is tremendous Plum Island, go defend it Projected label more than explicit Billions will die, admitted Human DNA enlisted for the super bug that’s invented File unzipped it, done lifted, the cure encrypted In a land that’s God forbidden, who planned this awful vision? Those who try to stop the mission are often missing The world’s on with sickness, I’ll move calm with swiftness A warning in Morse code, listen, move to my kill shot position Front gate Mask intrusion cause mass confusion My own laugh amusement, I’ll trap a nuisance Biohazard craft in music without rule of law had abused this FEMA camp class is useless Math of fusion Extinction, plague, drastic phase align with galactic plane Outbreaks spread in the fastest lane Safe? Retract your claim It’s not your average rain Dead rise, I’ll smash his brain Infected skeleton, plastic frame Yo, I’ll match the pain Artificial Intelligent machines, controlled crushing Fall of society, rushing virus above me and sub sea Planet dies to please the corporate buzz feed Army of the undead walking, the contagion inside of me (New evidence now, which discredits earlier reports Mysterious plague or viral outbreak seems to have run ramped)
