Journey
Tivani Ian Junior Mkhombo, known professionally as Citizen Deep, is a South African DJ and music producer celebrated for his unique sound in Afro House and Afro Tech. Born in Soweto, he began producing music at the age of 15, quickly developing a style that blends deep rhythms with soulful melodies.
Over the years, Citizen Deep has built a strong reputation in the South African music scene through a series of well-received EPs, including Ntima, Alkebulan, Energy, and Image. His music often explores rich textures and emotional depth, earning him a loyal following among fans of electronic and house music.
In 2021, he released his debut album ARCADE, a milestone project that showcased his growth as an artist. The album features collaborations with respected vocalists such as Thiwe, Berita, Bukeka, Lizwi, and Sir Trill, and reflects his commitment to pushing creative boundaries.
Later that year, Citizen Deep dropped the single Dtjoh featuring Jessica LM, released under his own label Swo Enta with licensing from Sony Music Africa. The track gained traction both commercially and in underground circles, further establishing his influence in the Afro Tech movement.
Known for his dynamic live sets and thoughtful production, Citizen Deep describes his DJ persona as a “superhero with a cape,” a reflection of the energy and transformation he brings to every performance. His work continues to shape the sound of modern Afro House, making him one of the genre’s most exciting voices.
