“Paradise“ is a song by American rapper LL Cool J featuring American singer Amerie. The song was released on December 14, 2002, as the second single from LL Cool J’s ninth studio album, 10 (2002). It also appears on the soundtrack to the 2003 film Deliver Us from Eva, in which LL Cool J stars alongside Gabrielle Union. Singer Tweet was originally slated to provide vocals but Amerie was eventually chosen instead. “Paradise“ embodies portions of Keni Burke’s 1982 song “Risin’ to the Top“, penned by Burke, Allan Felder, and Norma Jean Wright. A music video, featuring clips from Deliver Us from Eva, was produced to promote both the single and the film.
