Gregory Porter didn’t know while he was making it, but his latest album, “All Rise,” is just what his fans needed.
Porter’s sixth album, out in 2020, features the baritone singer on 16 jazz, blues, gospel and soul songs capped by the moving “Revival.”
“I’m not saying I’m a prophet, but I didn’t know we would need this at this moment,” he says. “There were messages there I didn’t even know I’d need. If people tuned into me during a difficult hour, I’m proud of that. I’m glad it’s the record I made in a situation like this.”
