Shangah is the title track to Emmanuel Jal's 7th studio album, which means " I am, I have been. I want to create music which pays homage to my heritage whist paving a positive way forward for my people.” - Emmanuel Jal.

The songs and its visuals, combine South Sudanese lyrics with familiar Congolese rifts offering up a catchy retro sounding track which Jal intends “the aunties and uncles to also dance to”. The music video directed by Ogega Andere was shot in downtown Nairobi with the visuals capturing iconic images from the 1970s and 80s with vintage fashion and looks.
