Nigerian singer, Oniyinde Azeez, popularly known as Zinoleesky, has said that becoming a father has changed his life completely.
The “Kilofeshe” crooner made the statement during a recent interview with Adesope Live, while reflecting on how fatherhood has reshaped his lifestyle.
According to Zinoleesky, welcoming his two children, Zendaya, born in December 2023, and Zafar, born in April 2025, has forced him to adjust his priorities and drop habits that no longer serve him.
“Fatherhood means quite a lot because I will say I’m a changed person since my boy got here. There are some things that I would have done before or let’s say the way I do some things I have reduced just because of the boy,” he said.
The Marlian Music signee added that fatherhood has taught him the importance of staying focused, saying, “I have to keep my head down, keep my head straight. And, it has been a blessing, too.”
Zinoleesky, who gained fame under Naira Marley’s label in 2019, is known for hits like “Call of Duty”, “Rocking”, and “Personal”. Despite past controversies linked to his label, the singer appears to be embracing a new phase marked by responsibility and family life.
