Many gospel songs borrow the preacher’s pacing: they start slow and build in incremental intensity until the boiling point. “You Deserve Praises,” by Milwaukee, Wisconsin’s Jevon D. Brock and Restoration, ignores that rule: it starts out at boiling and gets hotter when the lead singer arrives to shout the Devil out. The beat pounds down like an anvil as the choir belts out those complex chords that are seemingly unique to the gospel chorus.
Praise doesn’t come any louder and more intense than this track, from the group’s sophomore project, Another Opportunity.
