South Africa’s emerging star Shashie assembles a great lineup for “Phehla”, an explosive collabo with Litshepe Lr, Flash Cortez and Ntate Leraisa.
Released on July 24, 2026, on the Grystl Group imprint, the record is a vibrant Afro-house offering full of rhythm, movement, and nightlife intensity.
The title of the song, “Phehla,” which translates as “to churn,” “stir up” or “brew” in Zulu/Xhosa, is a reflection of the song’s objective to create enthusiasm and bring people together via music. The song’s addictive beat, joyful mood and dance-oriented production help to convey the feeling of a boisterous party.
The release comes on the heels of Shashie’s spectacular run of collaborations in 2026, including singles like “Ithemba” with Pyre and the star-studded hit “Sweety Lavo” with Lwah Ndlunkulu, Ubuntu Band and Muziqal Guru.
All involved deliver outstanding performances, making “Phehla” another exciting addition to the Afro-house and Afrosounds trend that is gaining momentum in the region.
