Prince Kaybee, a prominent figure in the South African music industry, has sparked a heated debate on social media with his bold declaration that Ciza's latest single, 'Isaka (6am)', is 'by far the most beautiful song to come out of South Africa since 2021'.
Released just last month, the track has quickly ascended to the top of the musical charts, showcasing Ciza's undeniable talent and artistry.
In his endorsement, Kaybee, known for his chart-topping hits like 'Gugulethu', expressed a deep appreciation for the song's creativity, crediting the 'spirit of genius' for the collaboration that brought the track to life.
Highlighting the exceptional work behind the song, he remarked, 'The Gods of waves and sonics were all present to cultivate this piece.'

Yet, not everyone is on board with Kaybee's assessment. The reaction from the public, particularly on social media platform X, has been mixed.
While many fans have rallied behind Ciza and his new release, others have pointedly critiqued Kaybee's opinion.
Comments ranged from nostalgic reminders of past hits, such as Kabza's 'Imithandazo' and 'Khusela', to sharp jabs at Kaybee himself, with one user quipping, 'That time you last dropped a beautiful song in 1987, but you have something to say, wow.'
Some listeners questioned Kaybee's taste, suggesting that he may not fully appreciate the contributions of other notable artists in the genre, like Kelvin Momo, Dlala Thukzin, and Stokie.
'Just say you don't feel the other guys … that have been putting out songs way more beautiful than this common one,' read one touching comment.
