RnBling is a six-track project that marks the first time the singer has featured guest artists on an EP, and the pairings are brilliant.

Following her 2022 project Riddim 5 and 2024\u2019s Dutty Love, this new body of work features cohesive production from Dunnie, Deeyasso, and Damie that rewards a full listen from start to finish.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1778789\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1778789\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1778789\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"The official album cover for RnBling EP by Fave showing a close portrait with crystal jewelry, a nose ring, and a large statement ring inside her mouth against a red backdrop.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.bellanaija.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/SaveClip.App_736456376_18608200126046202_7539971065755770412_n-80x80.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1778789\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The official digital cover art for Nigerian singer Fave\u2019s six-track musical project RnBling featuring the project title in glittering script.
