āThis song is so so so good.ā ā Finneas
After setting TikTok on fire (again) with only a teaser, hyperpop singer and songwriter Peach PRC unveils her anxiously awaited new single āGod Is A Freakā today.
Last week, Peach PRC shared a short snippet of the track, and it incited a flurry of activity with fans, resulting in more than 60 million views and 5 million likes so far on TikTok of āGod Is A Freakā content. Peach also attracted the attention of various pop music titans, such as Billie Eilish, and Finneas who tweeted about āGod Is A Freakā saying, āThis song is so so so good.ā
Regarding the song, Peach PRC said, āIāve been doing this āgod making ā’ TikTok video series for a while where I simplify the absurdities of āgodās creationsā and how the intentions behind his actions make no sense, itās something Iāve always questioned. I found it frustrating when I went to a Christian college and sat through testimonials about how the youth leaderās mum prayed for a certain type of carpet for her new house and God rewarded her with it, meanwhile there are children impoverished globally and āGodā doesnāt seem to bother.ā
She goes on, āI also remember purity culture being a big thing. The first time I was āslut shamedā was at 12-years-old inside a church during youth group for the clothes I was wearing. This song is for everyone who has felt shamed, dirty, impure, wrong, unloved and unworthy because of beliefs upheld by the church. Whether you are a believer in God or not, you are worthy of feeling liberation.ā
