Nigerian music sensation Fave has found her unique sound with her latest project, Dutty Love.

This long-awaited EP showcases her talent in seamlessly blending genres, confirming her place in the Afropop scene.

The journey to discovering her sound has been a gradual one.

While her debut EP, Riddim 5, hinted at her vocal prowess and knack for catchy melodies, it left fans questioning her musical direction.

Over the years, she released tracks like Scatta Scatta and contributed to hits such as Davido’s Kante, which brought her back into the spotlight.

These experiences culminated in Dutty Love, a defining moment in her career.

On Dutty Love, Fave channels her versatility to explore genres ranging from R&B to Dancehall, House, and Amapiano.

Tracks like Dutty Love Song and Lose My Mind highlight her ability to adapt to different sounds while maintaining her signature lyrical depth.

Her Dancehall influence shines through on Complicated, while Controlla borrows elements of Afrobeats with her distinctive flair.

Fave’s songwriting leans heavily on R&B, offering a refreshing lyrical discipline uncommon in Afropop.

Across the EP, she sings about love, relationships, and the intricacies of human connections.

Tracks like No Games and Belong to You display her assertiveness and emotional intensity, with the former standing out as a potential hit that blends funk and highlife influences reminiscent of Nigerian pop legends.

With her unique penmanship and vocal power, Fave stamps her identity on every track, making Dutty Love a cohesive yet versatile project.

Pulse Nigeria rated the EP an impressive 8.2 out of 10, praising its genre fusion, melodic strength, and enjoyability.

After years of searching, Fave has found her sound, and Dutty Love proves she is here to stay.
