    Still revisiting this years after I first heard it, so much wisdom and truth in this

  • @akb40hate
    @akb40hate 10 років тому +22

    Just made the mistake of reading the comments to this. Ridiculous to say that she isn't talented. Amazing. Really blew me away. That passion. That delivery. That wisdom. I love it.

    What a performer. I went to her gig with high, high expectations and was still blown away.
    Afterwards, was one of the many benefactands of her ability to really listen to people. Watched her talk and sign things for twenty minutes without saying or writing the same thing twice. When uttering my own one-or-two words, it was like I was the only person in the room.
    Normally find sincerity cloying or suspicious or affected. Not so here. Kate Tempest is a rare person.

    This woman is magical!! How her videos have so few views, blows my mind.,I’m an American that saw her on the Rick Rubin documentary, and I’ve got down the Kate tempest rabbit hole. She is absolutely 😉

    I do not understand why poeple are hating. I love this one and "I would write a poem for everyone of you and I would set it on fire". Maybe her sensitivity is not for everyone if you dont like it, she definitely gets in my sensitivity.. just dont listen to her full stop.

    • @BigShoals
      @BigShoals 8 років тому +1

      +Enrico Camarda I don't think it's about volume. She deserves to be heard loud, louder, loudest. Her voice should be heard, and those who are offended by her may not like her, may hate her work, but will be nonetheless affected. Loud and proud, baby, loud and proud.

  • @MariaDiazskn

    I'm a renegade
    Out for the truth
    I will shout from the rooftops
    You can find me
    Hanging about down in New Cross
    Or sitting it out on my stoop with my shoes off
    Shaking my head
    Because too many are too lost.
    But you can recognize me because I'm you, mate
    It's never too late to see deeper than the surface.
    Trust me, there's so much more to it.
    There's a world beyond this one
    That creeps in when your wits have gone soft
    And all your edges start shifting
    I mean it
    A world that it breathing
    Heaving its shoulders and weeping
    Bleeding through open wounds
    That's why I'm grieving.
    Down on my knees and I am feeling everything that I'm feeling.
    So come here
    Give me your hand
    Because I know how to hold it.
    I will write every single one of you a poem
    And then I'll set them all on fire
    Because I am stunned by how the light in your eyes resembles
    Brightening skies.
    Mate, I would fight for your life like it was mine
    But I'm writing tonight.
    I got a jam jar of wine
    I'm rolling smokes
    Spitting bars to myself with a swollen throat
    Sitting out by the river catching the holy ghost
    Thinking about how it feels every time you hold me close.
    I'm not flesh I'm all energy
    I care about genius
    I don't care about celebrity
    You only build them up to burn their effigies
    And there's more
    I can feel it so raw
    And it's calling me back to before.
    That's why I walk through the landscapes.
    That's why I grip the mics hard until my hands shake
    But they're more illuminated than the masons, mate
    I stand straight faced with the mania just inches away
    But I never flinch
    I got ink in my veins
    I don't care for the surface I care about the infinite
    I carve a niche and hide within it
    I lay down in the garden with the spirits
    Asking pardon from the elders
    They tell me:
    "Child, every minute is the minute to begin it, make it broader"
    But the thing that gives me strength
    Oh, it brings me such torture,
    Mate every single time the seasons change
    I get completely overwhelmed
    Fuck it I hold the helm
    Like the hilt of my sword
    I'm a born worker.
    I'm the second best MC not enough people have heard of.
    The first, that was con, I've got a thirst coming on
    I'm an old soul, but I maintain a young mind
    And Blake showed me
    Those who don't exhibit their influence
    Are only holding candles to the sunshine.
    So if you want to talk just come find me
    Me, I'll be on Lewisham way watching a door melt away
    Look,I used to spit these bars out to strangers on trains
    I couldn't hold it down I had a brain full of flames.
    I used to hang about with the alchies on the benches in the park
    They used to talk about their lives
    They told me why they walked out on their wives
    Mate, I used to storm the stages uninvited
    Far too excited,
    I had something to say and I couldn't hide it.
    But then I learnt about patience,
    And I learnt about stamina
    And every single moment stacked up
    And it all added to the present
    So now I keep cool and I consult the essence
    And I give thanks for every blessing
    But look, everything is so physical here
    You know the alcoholic and the offie
    Filling up his trolley until the world disappears
    I'm so hungry for something sustainable
    Something with truth, something unchangeable
    Something like you, in your room while the rain
    It falls and the windows are open
    And it's splashing on my skin like the sea breeze
    You can love me forever but never need me
    I'm fucking sure that you can be what completes me.
    So this one, is for the hopeless romantics
    It's for the broken, the stranded, the pure
    the puerile, the pedantic, the fearless,
    the frantic, living in the belly of the beast
    With the rats and the rancid and the blanketed streets
    And we starve while they banquet and feast
    But Banquo will rise
    He's got a message for the guilty
    This one's for the hard living,
    Filthy, the gutter mouths.
    This one's for the city that built me
    that will knock me down if I don't learn right
    I burn bright.
    I'll turn might into meager in a blink of an eye.
    So come on, meet me at the bar,
    I'll raise my drink to the sky
    and I will show you that you're fucking incredible.
    We're not flesh, we're all energy.
    I care about genius
    I don't care about celebrity.
    Don't give a shit about the hype
    I really care about integrity.
    I mean you only build them up to burn their effigies, anyway.
    And me, I'm getting closer to my essence every day.
    Renegade.

    Keats was degraded in his time for being and having a low class heritage and accent. The same is being done to this girl, who does have the empathic genius of all great poets. Those who condemn her as a hack and are bitter for their high flown verse trying to copy what has come before, are just that, bitter. And too late and too old to develop their own style and greatness, so they take to hating.

      @BigShoals 8 років тому +4

      +Will Wagoner Don't lay it on us elders! I'm 71 and have loved Kate Tempest ever since I first heard "Brand New Ancients." She's part of a proud tradition of Linton Kwesi Johnson, Gil Scott-Heron, and others. Raw and powerful and above all honest. || That said, thank you for pointing out that fact about Keats. Amazingly, I had never heard that, even though I was an English lit major at Northwestern University. I took an entire course on Keats and Byron, and Keats's origins were never touched on. THAT is shameful. Let's face it: were it not for social media and UA-cam, we probably would never know about Kate Tempest, beyond a very small circle of fans.

      Your right. I remember reading a youtube comment criticizing Kate. The person was basically saying she had no talent blah blah blah which is an opinion and if they believed that ok that's fine. But what was funny was literally the next sentence was something like. You should listen to someone with real talent ... like me. I though that was hilarious.

    Why do so many people actively resent someone's contribution to art just because they don't enjoy it?! You're not going to resonate with every piece of art on a personal level because it's an entirely subjective experience. If you can't see that, then you need to review your sense of entitlement.

  • @scribble36

    The after burn more painful than the explosion that just was.
    Dancing side by side with adrenaline covered the pain with a gloss.
    Now in the light of day it's a painful reflection.
    It's gonna take some time
    for your resurrection.
    What if you had avoided the mess that you made, is just an after thought
    that could haunt you to your grave.
    Put it down to experience and laugh it all away.
    Positive energy in thought will heal your mind in days!

    @23nothinking 10 років тому +5

    To the few people who feel they need to diss and hiss at this, why bother? If you can't appreciate it, or you just don't enjoy it for whatever reason, just move along. No one cares that you have taken the time to criticize, why not direct your energies elsewhere, if you don't like it, just leave it for people who do get something good from it. It won't hurt you to forget about it, but it might hurt others when you cut people down for doing something genuine. Grow up a bit, chill out, do / say something positive, if you can't do that, take a look at ya self, it'll take a while but I'm willing to bet your negativity comes from other sources than the subject matter.. I know cause I was a miserable c*nt for a while haha ;)

I hope i never become unteachable unreachable and doors to endless possibilities would be cemented shut for good...i cannot imagine an existence of complacency...and being a sheep wandering off the cliff with all the others...or worse yet not only never saying the emperor has no clothes but not noticing...or noticing but intentionally staying silent in order to obtain something out of greed something that cost the misfortune and hardship of others..i cannot imagine knowingly fucking a fellow man out of something good ...something they earned or possessed or had coming to them...i cannot imagine intentionally knowingly creating harm hardship pain grief or devastation to any living creature..let alone a brother or sister...because it is my belief whether some like it or do not or will not accept this fact is of no concern of my own but we are all of one creator one creation, we are all brothers and sisters are we not? ...we are all the same....there are differences in functioning some are broken...some are not...the broken are the harmful greedy thieving sociopaths the narcissists the violent the abusive the repugnant svheming plotting planning murderers of life and mind the hateful cruel viscious and horrible...there are the good loving kind giving and patient there are more good than bad...and the good have allowed the bad to be the leaders the takers of life and happiness the thieves of peace and content lives..
