Kate Tempest is an English Poet, a musical artist, also a novelist and a playwright. She had won a reward such as the Ted Hughes award. Kate had a passion for writing poetry and performing at
a young age.


          One of her known performances called "My Shakespeare".Performed at the world of Shakespeare. Kate Tempests expresses with a formal tone trying to convert the poem into a rap. "My Shakspeare" trying to connect to some of Shakespeare's plays. (ex. Romeo and Juliet)                                                                                                                                                           Below Shows the Rap video that Kate Tempest did                                                                                                                              

                                                                                                                   Both the poem and the video are trying to explain that Shakespeare is really important in today's modern society. From lines 40-42, Kate explains how "Shakespeare is more than something taught in a classroom."  Kate later explains how overall, Shakespeare is mostly everywhere. In the poem, Kate mentions how "he is in every wise woman and every pitiful villain". This means how Shakespeare impacts people due to his work.  

                  Unlike the poem, the rapping video that Kate Tempest made had an informal tone. The lines had some differences compared to what the poem was saying. Kate rapping about "My Shakespeare" made it clear how Kate had expression compared to the poem.

                             Both ended the same way. In the video, it states, "In me, I see him everywhere, he's my Shakespeare. Same as the poem. Kate knows the accomplishments that Shakespeare had done and the legacy that Shakespeare had left for which is why"He is my Shakespeare"
