A-Reece has officially released his highly anticipated album, Paradise 2 (P2), a sequel to his debut from 2016. The star-studded album boasts an array of fantastic musicians including M.anifest, Jay Jody, and Sjava who, along with Shekhinah, delivered the current fan-favourite, God Laughs.

The song was already hailed when Reece leaked his tracklist not so long ago, and quickly became a highlight of the album.

Sjava later takes over preaching the need to "pray harder and go higher" despite your setbacks. The song is a play on the quote "Man plans and God laughs," which means that despite our careful planning, God decides our fate.

Shekhinah leads the track to completion, giving thanks to God that she's "good" - this could be about her success and other things, big or small, that are worth being grateful for.

The song was performed on the night of 19 October at the Paradise 2 launch:
