Ciza – Isaka II (6am) Ft. Tems, Omah Lay, Thukuthela, Jazzworx & Lekaa Beats

When Ciza dropped “Isaka II (6am)” on August 28, 2025, he didn’t just release a remix—he reimagined the moment where night’s vibrations meet dawn’s calm. With Tems lending her crystalline vocals and Omah Lay bringing his signature Afro-rhythmic flow, the track becomes an evocative journey through sound and emotion. Tems opens the piece with the refrain “I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready, babe,” setting a tone of anticipation and quiet empowerment. Ciza’s chant “Isaka la vuka eh / Saka la vuka yeh” rises like a dawn chorus, calling listeners to awaken with him. Omah Lay steps in with verse lines such as “I always dey where ginger dey / Make I no tire,” highlighting the blend of daily hustle and personal rhythm.

Musically, the track is a fluid fusion. Drawing from Ciza’s South African roots—his 3-Step, Amapiano and Afrohouse influences—“Isaka II” merges those elements with Nigerian Afrobeat sensibilities from Tems and Omah Lay. The production, helmed by Jazzworx and Lekaa Beats, floats between airy synths and grounded drums, giving the piece both spacious loftiness and movement. More than a club track, it’s designed for that liminal space—the moment when late night gives way to early morning, when thoughts settle and the body still moves. In that space, the lyrics speak of readiness (“I’m ready”) and arrival (“Uz’ ungangisondeli… Ng’zobuya ngo-six”).

The collaboration marks a milestone for Ciza—working with Tems and Omah Lay lifts the piece into pan-African dimension, showing how interwoven musical languages across the continent can be. For fans and playlist curators alike, “Isaka II (6am)” isn’t just a single—it’s the soundtrack to the moment between rest and rise, celebration and reflection. It’s the kind of track you play when you’re driving at dawn, or when you’re finally winding down after a night and want something that resonates beyond the beat.
