A-Reece Details Why He Pushed Back “P3” Album Release To 2027. South African rap phenomenon A-Reece has officially pushed back the release of his long-awaited album P3 to 2027, and for a good reason. In a recent appearance on SlikourOnlife, the rapper opened up about the thought process behind the delay and revealed that fans are in for more than just a standard project.
When asked about the decision to postpone the album, originally slated for 2026, A-Reece explained that a creative epiphany changed everything.
“Yeah, because I feel like I need more time, especially because an idea spawned in my mind,” he shared. “And I was like, I want to make this a double album because it will be the first for me, and it will be dope. Just looking back on it in hindsight, you know, when I’m older I’ll be like damn I did that, I dropped a double album.”
This revelation follows A-Reece’s tweet from last month, where he wrote: “I have decided that I will be releasing P3 (executively produced by Michael Tuohy) in 2027, not ‘26 & it will be a double album.”
The Paradise rapper didn’t stop there—he also hinted at a broader evolution in his creative approach. “I even realised my catalogue lacks remixes, deluxes,” he added. “So it’s just sh** that I’m thinking about, and I’m like, man, maybe I should do it.”
For fans who’ve followed A-Reece’s journey since Paradise dropped in 2016, this marks a potentially historic moment. Known for his intricate lyricism and uncompromising artistic vision, the move to deliver a double album is both ambitious and fitting for an artist constantly pushing the envelope.
