Nigerian singer Zinoleesky has officially ended his long-standing affiliation with Marlian Music, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his career.
The artist parted ways with the label on April 23, 2026, after spending seven years under its banner. His departure is believed to be linked to an alleged disagreement with the label’s founder, Naira Marley, although details surrounding the reported fallout remain unclear.
Shortly after his exit, Zinoleesky introduced his own imprint, Zinodict Music. The announcement came alongside the release of his debut independent track titled Nostalgia, which he promoted via his social media platforms. He has also updated his profile to reflect his new label.
Prompt News reports speculation about tension between Zinoleesky and Naira Marley is not new.
Back in November 2025, rumors of a rift between the two surfaced online. At the time, the singer downplayed the claims, publicly expressing his continued loyalty to Marlian Music.
