Jalen Ngonda – Doctrine Of Love

Artist: Ngonda, Jalen
Title: Doctrine of Love
Genre: R&B / Soul
Label: Daptone Records
Since the release of his critically acclaimed debut full length, 2023’s Come Around and Love Me, Jalen’s career has undergone a meteoric trajectory. The track “If You Don’t Want My Love” went viral, garnering 253 million streams to date. Jalen has appeared on a bevy of first-rate television programs—notably, Graham Norton, Late Night with Steven Colbert and Later with Jools Holland. He opened for Thee Sacred Souls on their national US tour, as well as Olivia Dean on her 2023 UK tour, and has sold out countless club dates across the globe as a headliner. Now, in 2026, with the embers of his debut still burning brightly, Jalen prepares to drop his eagerly awaited sophomore album, Doctrine of Love.
The hard work and relentless touring behind his debut has 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 the forthcoming album 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 background vocals, creating a highly stylish exercise in modern soul artistry.
