Background and career


As a middle Child and only daughter of the Chidozie's, a small family of 5 who resided in eastern and south western Nigeria over the last two decades, her musical experience typically began from the church at the tender age of 6. Just before she rose to stardom in 2020, Fave (coined from Favour) was just a 19 year old singer-songwriter pursuing a law degree belted with only one single M.O.M.M.S which stands for Me or Mask My Sins. She is studying Law currently, and is in her final year in Obafemi Awolowo university in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria.
Although her Career has seen her dabble around genres including dancehall, Afro pop, Afro beats, Dane, R & B, Fave largely considers herself a "pop" girl. Her poetic approach to writing prioritizes vulnerability accompanied by vivid plots conveying a whirlwind of emotions often on groovy beat-drops or high-tempo drum progressions.
In 2019, while studying for a Law degree in south-western Nigeria she posted several freestyles on her Twitter account which was instrumental in bringing her into the spotlight. She started gaining traction after her verse on Jinmi Abdul's produced free beat became an internet sensation specifically on Twitter where she got a lot of positive feedback from the public.
