Description

Over the past three years, Jalen Ngonda has grown from cult favourite to bona fide soul torchbearer, taking his sound from intimate club stages to arenas and international festivals. Today he returns with the announcement of his second album, Doctrine Of Love, released June 5 via Daptone Records, alongside the unveiling of its electrifying title track. With Doctrine Of Love, he steps fully into his role as both a disciple and pioneer with the title track setting both the emotional tone and musical blueprint. Built around a finger-snapping rhythm, soaring call-and-response backing vocals and a gospel-charged crescendo, ‘Doctrine Of Love’ is an instant dancefloor classic:

“I wrote that track when I was trying to do anything to get out of the studio,” Ngonda recalls with a laugh. “I was listening to a lot of James Brown at the time and that was an inspiration. ‘Doctrine’ to me was a word no-one ever uses. I took it to be like a certificate, the ‘Certificate of Love’ - look, I think maybe I meant ‘doctorate’, but we wrote it and recorded it and now it's a whole thing. I just write the song. The listener can interpret it however they want.”
