Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, the On S'amuse hitmaker shared details of the event, which marks his return to the stage.

“I’m honoured to be opening for the incredible Ivorian artist Debordo Leekunfa, a major figure in coupé-décalé.
This performance marks my return to the stage after a break, and I’ve used this time to focus on my upcoming album. Fans can expect a preview of one of my new tracks, set to drop in July,” Isacco shared with enthusiasm.

The singer said that he has been working extra hard to make the performance outstanding for fans.

“I pour everything into rehearsals, perfecting my vocals, stage presence, and connection with the audience. My goal is to give fans an unforgettable experience, so I push myself to deliver high-energy, heartfelt performances,” he revealed.

He described the performance as more than just a show, as he wants fans to feel the passion and emotion in his music.

While Isacco remains true to his African heritage, he admitted that France’s cultural diversity has played a significant role in shaping his artistry.

“France has exposed me to diverse sounds and cultures, pushing me to experiment. My music evolves, but my identity remains rooted in Rwanda,” he explained.

Isacco noted that the fusion of African and global influences is evident in his upcoming album.

“This project reflects my growth, blending my heritage with fresh influences,” he teased.

Despite living abroad, the artiste noted that it is important for him to pay homage to his ancestry.

“I collaborate with African artists, engage with the diaspora community in France, and infuse my work with our traditions. It’s my way of honoring where I come from while evolving as an artist,” he shared.

When he’s not on stage or in the studio, Isacco enjoys reading and spending quality time with his loved ones. He also unwinds with his favorite pastime, playing football.

“I’m a huge football fan. Playing with friends is my go-to way to unwind and stay energized outside the studio.”
