VIDEO: CIZA – ISAKA (6AM) ft. Jazzworx & Thukuthela
The music video for “ISAKA (6AM)” by CIZA, featuring Jazzworx and Thukuthela, is a mesmerizing fusion of early-morning emotion, introspective energy, and artistic finesse. It’s a visual journey that perfectly mirrors the title — 6AM — that fleeting hour where night meets day, where reflection turns into renewal. With sleek visuals, atmospheric production, and emotionally layered performances, the video paints a cinematic portrait of youthful ambition, love, and emotional awakening.
Ciza, Nektunez and Thukuthela recently appeared on Isaka (6am) – In Ghana.
From the opening seconds, the mood is set with dreamlike cinematography. A soft golden light glows through hazy urban skylines — suggesting that the story unfolds in the early morning hours after a long night of thought, emotion, or transformation. The stillness of dawn contrasts with the pulse of the music, giving the visuals a sense of calm intensity. Every frame feels carefully composed — balancing solitude, introspection, and style.
CIZA takes center stage as both the narrator and protagonist. His presence radiates confidence mixed with vulnerability — a young artist caught between reflection and motion. The opening scenes show him alone in a dimly lit space — perhaps a studio, bedroom, or rooftop — lost in thought, the morning light creeping in. His gaze is contemplative, suggesting someone processing the aftermath of love, success, or self-discovery.
As the beat (crafted by Jazzworx) kicks in, the visuals expand. We see CIZA move through different environments — walking down quiet streets, performing against sunrise backdrops, or surrounded by friends in moments of quiet energy. Each shot feels symbolic of time passing and emotions settling. The camera work is fluid and cinematic, using slow pans, lens flares, and smooth tracking shots to give the impression of floating through memory.
The styling leans into minimalistic modernism — clean cuts, subtle jewelry, muted color palettes of beige, white, and amber that match the early-morning aesthetic. CIZA’s wardrobe emphasizes maturity and refinement — a visual reflection of his growing artistic identity. His movements are deliberate but relaxed, exuding quiet confidence and emotional composure.
Thukuthela’s contribution adds a deeply soulful layer, both vocally and visually. Her scenes bring warmth and emotional grounding to the narrative. She appears in softer, more intimate lighting — her performance filled with sincerity and subtle passion. Her presence symbolizes clarity — the moment of emotional peace that comes after the chaos of the night. Her harmonies blend effortlessly with CIZA’s tone, creating an atmosphere of mutual understanding and shared vulnerability.
