If your heart was missing a beat, consider it found. South African sensation Ciza (real name Nkululeko Nciza) the Benoni born, Mafikizolo-raised musical torchbearer, is back with a remix for the ages ~ Isaka II (6AM) featuring Nigeria’s own Omah Lay and Tems. Welcome to the sound of Afrobeats and Amapiano colliding in glorious harmony.

Raised in a legendary musical household, his father was TK Nciza, Mafikizolo’s executive, and his mother a lead vocalist, Ciza didn’t just inherit talent, he inherited a vibe. He started composing tracks at 15 and officially went pro in 2019 with “Come Alive.” His breakthrough came in 2025 with “Isaka (6AM)”, a track that didn’t just chart, it became the most streamed song on Spotify in South Africa that year. Its viral dance, rapid video views, and headlining festival slots weren’t luck, they were destiny.

Why This Remix Feels Historic? The Isaka II remix lands like an aria. Omah Lay brings his signature Afrofusion soul; Tems, her signature velvet gravitas. The fusion is more than musical, it’s a cultural handshake between South Africa and Nigeria, rhythmically reaffirming that African music lives in remix, reciprocity, and reconnection.

Though lyrics may be shrouded in Amapiano’s moody vibe, “Isaka” resonates as early morning devotion, a metaphorical glimpse at love, longing, and sunrise transformation. The “6AM” tag hints at vulnerability catching the light, while the remix layers in hope and nuance.

This isn’t just another remix. It’s a manifesto in audio form, more so; Africa’s future in music is collaborative, borderless, and unapologetically experimental. If you’re building mood playlists or curating dancefloor reverence, Isaka II (6AM) demands a front row spot. Because when Ciza, Omah Lay, and Tems unite, they don’t just drop beats, they drop history.
