Nigerian singer Oniyinde Azeez, popularly known as Zinoleesky, has opened up about how fatherhood has completely changed his perspective and lifestyle. The singer, who welcomed his first child, a daughter named Zendaya, in December 2023, and recently welcomed a son, Zafar, in April 2025, shared his journey into fatherhood during a recent chat on Adesope Live. According to Zino, the arrival of his children made him more intentional about how he lives and the choices he makes. In his words: Fatherhood means quite a lot because I will say Im a changed person since my boy got here. There are some things that I would have done before or lets say the way I do some things I have reduced just because of the boy.”I have to keep my head down, keep my head straight. And it has been a blessing, too. Zino added that being a dad has been a source of both reflection and motivation. With two children now looking up to him, Zinoleesky says hes more determined to stay focused and responsible. The post Fatherhood changed me Singer Zinoleesky reflects on how having kids made him rethink his lifestyle appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
