South African Amapiano and Afrohouse sensation Nkululeko Nciza, alias Ciza Isaka, has barely wasted a moment since touching down on Kenyan soil, already revealing that Bensoul is the Kenyan artiste he is most keen on collaborating with.
The Amapiano hitmaker, whose visit to Nairobi has been eagerly anticipated by fans and music enthusiasts alike, made the revelation just hours after landing at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport [JKIA] on Saturday, June 14, 2025, stating that Bensoul’s artistry deeply resonates with his sonic style and musical vision.
Ciza, who was speaking to YouTuber Trudy Kitui, further stated that he could not confirm with certainty that the Bensoul collaboration would take place, emphasising that it remained to be seen.
“Maybe… I love Bensoul’s music, so let’s see what happens. I love his vibe, and I would not mind cooking something with him while I am here,” Ciza told Trudy.
Ciza went on to express his appreciation to all his Kenyan fans who have continued to show him support since he ventured into the ever-evolving world of South African Amapiano music.
He further extended gratitude for the reception he received upon arrival, describing the gestures as exceptional and heartwarming.
“I want to thank every single person who welcomed me in Kenya. Thank you for welcoming me here, and thank you for the amazing time. Let us spend time together and create memories,” he added.
At the same time, Ciza disclosed that he had not travelled directly from South Africa but had flown in from Tanzania, where he had staged a separate performance the previous evening.
He spoke positively about Tanzania as well, noting that a significant number of young people turned up in large numbers for his show.
“I just came from Tanzania. I did a great job yesterday—I had a show, I did interviews. It was sold out and full of young people. Beautiful music. I was deejaying and also performing for them,” he added.
Previous Kenya tour
The ‘6am’ crooner also reminisced about the warm reception he received during his previous tour in Kenya four years ago.
He said he was excited to be back, adding that he anticipates a similar atmosphere of energy and support, especially now that his ongoing Kenyan event is being spearheaded predominantly by young creatives.
“It has been four years since I was in Kenya, so it is going to be a good one. I am going to rest so I can give you a good show. I met amazing people when I was here and did amazing promos and interviews. Now I am here again—this time, of course, hoping to have a better show. There is a show that I am doing—it is going to be a very good one. It is by young guys, and I am very happy to partner with them,” he concluded.
