Zinodict Music is a Nigerian record label founded by street-pop artist Zinoleesky (Oniyide Azeez) in April 2026, after he ended a seven-year run with Naira Marley’s Marlian Music. He announced the exit and unveiled the new imprint within days of each other, releasing “Nostalgia” as his first release under the new label.
The label is independent and artist-owned: Zinoleesky is both its founder and its only confirmed roster artist so far. No outside investor, distributor or publishing partner has been reported. Its public presence runs through Zinoleesky’s own social accounts and streaming metadata rather than a dedicated company website.
Zinodict Music matters as a data point in a recurring pattern among Nigerian street-pop and Marlian-affiliated artists: MohBad (Imolenization) and Naira Marley himself before him also left or built imprints outside larger label structures. Whether Zinodict signs artists beyond its founder, or stays a vehicle for his own catalogue, is not yet established.
