https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-fE7jpE3T8 Kate Tempest is a spoken word artist and playwright hailing from South London, who last year won the Ted Hughes Award for her epic poem Brand New Ancients. But her talents also extend to rap music. She put out her Dan Carey-produced full-length debut Everybody Down last month via Big Dada. You can stream the album in full on the label's YouTube channel; above we've linked one of its highlights, the catchy "Circles." Happy listening!
