After his birthday, Ciza took to Instagram where he shared a video with his parents in the studio. They were dancing to his remix, Isaka (6 am) 2, featuring Tems and Omah Lay.

"ISAKA 6 AM changed my life, and the last slide is going to change the world. ISAKA 2 On the way! I’m so proud of this remix. Tems and Omah Lay took it to the next level. The first thing I wanted to do was share it with both of my parents. Proof that good music brings people together. I can only go back to the days you guys told me I’ll be making the world dance one day. I love you guys!" he exclaimed.Ph
