Star Eagles’ source explicitly identifies its Bari song as an older composition recorded by Dennis and Tony; the original work and the newer video must not be confused.

== Summary ==
Christian song and praise performance in South Sudanese communities, including Juba Arabic and Bari examples. It is a regional Gospel browsing scene whose local choirs, languages and arrangements remain individually identified.

== History ==
Community choirs, church participation and diasporic musical links help sustain several South Sudanese Christian repertoires. This page offers a starting collection rather than a definitive account of every language or church in the country.
<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9xpX9brZ-g South Sudanese gospel — community and recording context].</ref>

== Musical characteristics ==
Ensemble response, solo-led melody and rhythmic church accompaniment appear in different combinations. A Bari hymn and a Juba Arabic choir piece should be heard as distinct examples. The region’s secular popular songs do not enter this collection merely because their performers are South Sudanese.

== Geography and communities ==
A broad connected southern landscape represents the Juba and surrounding community networks documented by these selections. A further broad reach represents church music networks toward the country’s central areas, without asserting a uniform national audience. Country-specific recording contexts are retained.

== Artists ==
JCC Choir, Juba, Rock City AY Choir, Juba, Star Eagles: Dennis & Tony, Jose John. Credits refer to the particular recordings below; a named uploader is not assumed to be the performer. These examples introduce a scene and do not assign an artist’s entire mixed repertoire to Gospel.

== Representative performances ==
The examples distinguish video publication from original repertoire and recording dates. Unknown dates remain unknown. Explicitly archival examples remain for reference and are excluded from geographic autoplay.
