During the 1980s, when she is involved in the terrible war against the dictatorship, she earns the nickname "Halgan", the fighter, and her songs win the hearts of an entire people forever. Exiled to France, she starts her group in Lyon with Aymeric Krol, Maël Salètes and Régis Monte. Her third album is the fruit of a sincere search for authenticity and innovation, an unprecedented alliance between Somali song and original rock, thus enriching the most unexpected landscapes of the world music scene with her inspiration. It's called ‘Hiddo Dhawr’ (‘Preserve Culture’), which is also the name of the cultural centre that Sahra founded in 2013 in Hargeisa. “SHARAF” is a hymn to the pride and dignity of the human being. «Show your beauty and the honor that God has given you» In these days filled with daily bad news and war on the screen, misery has no place for Sahra Halgan who decides through this first single to prioritize the beauty of human dignity. As she usually says, “We must be able to love each other in order to open ourselves to the world and love the other. Self-esteem is not a fault of pride and on the contrary, knowing its value highlights the beauty of a soul". FR: Sahra Halgan est une artiste iconique du Somaliland, pays de la corne d’Afrique indépendant depuis 1991, mais non reconnu par la communauté internationale. C’est pendant les années 80, engagée dans la terrible guerre contre la dictature, qu’elle reçoit le surnom de «Halgan», la combattante, et que ses chansons gagnent à jamais le coeur de tout un peuple. Exilée en France, c’est à Lyon qu’elle fonde son groupe avec Aymeric Krol, Maël Salètes et Régis Monte. Son troisième album est le fruit d’une recherche sincère d’authenticité et d’innovation, d’une alliance inédite entre chanson somalienne et rock des origines, enrichissant ainsi de son inspiration les paysages les plus inattendus de la sono mondiale. Il s’appelle Hiddo Dhawr («Préserve la culture»), également le nom du centre culturel que Sahra a fondé en 2013 à Hargeisa. « SHARAF » est un hymne à la fierté et à la dignité de l’être humain. « Montre ta beauté et l’honneur que Dieu t’a donné » En ces jours remplis de mauvaises nouvelles quotidiennes et de guerre à l’écran, le misérabilisme n’a pas sa place pour Sahra Halgan qui décide à travers ce premier single de prioriser la beauté de la dignité humaine. Comme elle à pour habitude de l’exprimer: « Il faut pouvoir s’aimer afin de pouvoir s’ouvrir au monde et aimer l’autre. S’estimer n’est pas une faute d’orgueil et bien au contraire, connaitre sa valeur met en lumière la beauté d’une âme".
