The SETE hitmaker, K.O, shared with Briefly News what the song is all about and how it'll resonate with the listeners.

"Pharadise is a reunion that feels like destiny. Young Stunna and I are back, reigniting the spark that birthed SETE—the 2022 juggernaut that owned South Africa’s soul. Now, with Lunatic on production, Afrotraction and Murumba Pitch co-crafting the vibe, Pharadise takes that legacy and runs further. It’s bold, it’s raw, it’s us.
"This single and project carry my DNA—19 years of setting the pace in South African hip-hop and beyond. Through these tracks, you’ll hear the pulse of our nation—joy that lifts you, pain that grounds you, pride that fuels you, frustration that drives you, and hope that keeps you moving."

Netizens give Pharadise a thumbs up

Despite Nota Baloyi dissing the project's cover on social media earlier, many netizens gave it a thumbs up as they flooded the comment section with their reactions. Here's what they had to say:
