Zinoleesky’s latest single “Loving You” may still be on the lips of many across the world, but that is not stopping the Nigerian singer from releasing yet another single with potential to take the world by storm.
“Call Of Duty”, his latest, follows “Loving You”, which debuted on the Billboard US Afrobeats Songs Chart, and Apple Music’s Top 100 Chart, while garnering over five million plays online in a month. Produced by Niphkeys, who has recently worked with the likes of Omah Lay, Naira Marley, Asake and Reekado Banks, “Call Of Duty” continues the hot streak that Zinoleesky has been on all year, as he gears towards the release of his sophomore EP soon.
“Call Of Duty” is a glorious fusion of afrobeats, amapiano and electronic dance music. As the ‘Call Of Duty’ song title suggests, Zinoleesky has fused his passion for gaming and women together on one record, and as the fast-rising Gen Z talent puts it, “I like girls, I like gaming so I made a song about what I like”.
Emerging as one of the rising stars of afrobeats new class of 2022, Zinoleesky first burst onto the scene as a fresh-faced teenager with a series of viral freestyles that caught the attention of afrobeats royalty including Davido, Kizz Daniels, and Naira Marley, before eventually signing to Naira Marley’s record label, Marlian Music, in 2019, and releasing his acclaimed debut EP in 2020. Now with over 300 million plays online, three Billboard-charting singles, UK support from BBC 1Xtra, Capital Xtra and KISS Fresh, sold-out shows at the world-renowned Scala in London, and a Headies ‘Next Rated’ award nomination all under his belt, Zinoleesky is staking his claim as one to watch on the global music landscape.
