GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNING ARTIST DOE RELEASES SOUL-STIRRING WORSHIP ANTHEM “KNOW YOUR NAME”

Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter, DOE, drops an energetic and powerful new worship anthem, “Know Your Name,” available now on all streaming platforms. Known for seamlessly bridging R&B, gospel, and contemporary Christian music, DOE delivers a deeply personal and generational declaration of faith with her latest single.

Produced by Kyle Lee and written by DOE alongside David Spencer, Anthony S. Brown, and Dia Viola, “Know Your Name” carries the energy of a live worship moment, capturing collective praise.

“‘Know Your Name’ was inspired by the word ‘posterity’ found in Psalm 22:27–30,” shares DOE. “I have such great respect for the generations before me who taught me how to call on the name of the Lord, and for the generations coming after me who need to know His name too. He has a name for every season of life. This song is both my prayer and my declaration that every generation will know His name.”

Born Dominique Jones, DOE has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary Christian and gospel music. Her recent single “Black Boy,” featuring Jon Batiste, underscored this mission, offering a timely and affirming message that celebrates identity, dignity, and hope for young black men. This same intentionality carries into “Know Your Name,” where personal testimony meets universal truth.

Her 2025 album Heart Of A Human, which she penned in its entirety, earned the GRAMMY® Award for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album, further solidifying her place as a leading voice in the space.

With eight GRAMMY® nominations, two GMA Dove Awards, and collaborations alongside artists such as Lecrae, Maverick City Music, and Tauren Wells, DOE continues to expand her impact. Her musical roots run deep; raised in a family of artists, she began performing professionally as a teenager with the acclaimed group Forever JONES before launching her solo career in 2019.
