The two youngsters have fast become the center of their parents' world. Tank takes pride in showing off his kids on social media and gushing about them.
In a previous Instagram video, the icon showed off the twosome honing their vocal skills. The pair looked hilarious and adorable as they crooned the lyrics of a song under their dad's guidance.
Following the release of his eighth studio album, "Savage," which peaked at No. 86 on Billboard Hot 100, the singer admitted he found it interesting collaborating with family, most notably, his other half, Foster, who was the leading lady in the track.
Hopefully, future collaborations would feature his budding singers, Zoey and Zion. Last year, Tank and his wife celebrated their first wedding anniversary in style.

Foster also shared a social media post featuring several pictures from their wedding day. She extended gratitude to Tank for loving her unconditionally, referring to him as her BFF.
As far as love marriages go, this beautiful couple has proven beyond doubt that their love for each other only becomes stronger each day. Hopefully, that love would help them scale through Tank's health ordeals together.
