God’s favour Ugochinyere Chidozie, known professionally as FAVE, is a trailblazing Nigerian pop artist whose music transcends genres and borders. Growing up in both Lagos and Akwa-Ibom State, FAVE’s early exposure to Gospel music through her church choir upbringing laid the foundation for her diverse sound. She masterfully blends Afrobeat, Jamaican dancehall, and contemporary pop, creating a globally resonant style. Her debut EP, Riddim 5, featuring hit singles like “Baby Riddim” and “Obsessed,” established her as a powerful new voice in music.

In the same year, FAVE received numerous accolades, including recognition as one of BET x Nissan Afrobeats Up Next stars, Spotify’s Equal Africa Ambassador, Apple Music’s ‘One To Watch,’ and one of Audiomack’s ‘African Artists to Watch Out For.’ She also won the coveted ‘Rookie of the Year’ award at the Headies. FAVE has collaborated with prominent artists, contributing to Olamide’s hits “Want” and “Pon Pon,” Simi’s “Loyal,” Phyno’s “Deep” and Davido’s “Kante,” the latter of which was a Top 10 most-streamed song in Nigeria on Spotify in 2023. Now signed to Bad Habit/Atlantic Records, FAVE’s latest EP, Dutty Love, showcases her continuing evolution as an artist with a compelling mix of infectious popular songs, poised to make a substantial impact on the international music scene.
