BILLBOARD-CHARTING AFROPIANO TRAILBLAZER ZINOLEESKY RETURNS WITH NEW SINGLE ‘CALL OF DUTY’

Nigerian rising star and afropiano trailblazer ZINOLEESKY is back with the ultimate summer jam titled ‘CALL OF DUTY’. 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 coming this autumn.

The sun-kissed dance floor filler is a glorious fusion of afrobeats, amapiano, and electronic dance music, in a way that only Zinoleesky can deliver, which is why the Lagos-based artist and musician is revered as one of the frontrunners and trailblazers of the exciting new afropiano subgenre that is taking over the continent with its lush mix of afrobeats and amapiano. 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”.
