Nigerian singer Oniyinde Azeez, popularly known as Zinoleesky, has revealed how becoming a father has significantly changed his outlook on life and behaviour.
The Marlian Music artiste, who became a father to a baby girl named Zendaya in December 2023 and welcomed a son, Zafar, in April 2024, opened up about his fatherhood journey during a recent interview on Adesope Live.
Zinoleesky shared that fatherhood has brought about a personal transformation, helping him overcome certain negative habits and adopt a more disciplined lifestyle for the sake of his children.
“Fatherhood means quite a lot because I will say I’m a changed person since my boy got here,” he said. “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 added that the responsibility of raising his children has kept him grounded. “I have to keep my head down, keep my head straight. And it has been a blessing, too.”
Zinoleesky’s remarks have resonated with many fans, with several praising his openness and growth as both an artist and a father.
