Ciza is in the prime of his career and we love it for him. The up-and-coming artist seems to have hit his big break with the release of his chart-topping song ISAKA (6AM). According to entertainment blogger @2022AFRICA, the song which also features Jazzworx & Thukuthela reached a rare milestone on the streaming platform, Spotify.

Even a recent album release by Amapiano heavyweight Kelvin Momo wasn’t enough to dethrone ISAKA (6AM) from the summit of the South African Spotify daily chart. Entertainment blog @2022AFRICA shared on X, Tuesday 3 June 2025 that the song remains number one on the chart with 123,33K streams. What’s impressive is that ISAKA (6AM) has topped the South African Spotify daily chart for just over a month. The post reads:

“'Isaka (6am)' by Ciza, Jazzworx & Thukuthela officially remains at No. #1 on the SA Spotify daily chart with 123,33K streams. It has now spent 35 days at No. #1”
