Ngonda, Jalen - Doctrine Of Love

Since the release of his critically acclaimed debut full length, 2023’s Come Around and Love Me, Jalen’s career has undergone a meteoric rise. The hard work and relentless touring behind his debut have fortified his craft.

His message: “The doctrine of love holds that every thought and action should be guided first by compassion for others, because love is the highest measure of human worth.” The tracks on Doctrine of Love are born from this creed.

With his deep knowledge and love of classic soul, Jalen delivers authenticity in abundance. Doctrine of Love blends pop sensibility and soulful melodies with raw grit and groove, expanding on the orchestral arrangements of Come Around and Love Me with flourishes of horns and gospel-kissed backing vocals, creating a highly stylish example of modern soul artistry.
