I think "creep on up" is incorrect, but if you have a sentence where it is, I might be able to tell you the difference between the two.

I saw it in the lyrics of "Hippie Sabotage - Options"
Here's the part that contains "creep on up" 👇
"My idle hands lead to evil thoughts
That's what I was told
I see a devil tryna' creep on up
Ain't gon' get inside my soul"

@victorgabriel22_ Okay, I see. "creep up on" requires a noun after it, while "creep on up" is used when the noun is already known, or it is creeping up on "me". Does that make sense?
