Answer and Explanation:

Kate Tempest is born in London. She is a poet, rapper, and playwright. She had developed her love of poetry at a young age during her schooling.

She has performed at poetry slams in Europe, Australia, and America, and spread a message: "Poetry is not a dead language."

The prime performance of her career was at the World Shakespeare Festival where she had performed "My Shakespeare". In this poem which she had performed at the festival, she expresses her gratefulness through the epic rap poem.  In "My Shakespeare" she refers to some of Shakespeare’s' famous plays, which also include Romeo and Juliet.

The central idea she had developed was that the events in Shakespearean literature are eternal and universal.

Tempest delivers the poem in her habitual tone of anger:

“He’s less the tights and garters

More the sons demanding answers

From the absence of their fathers.

The hot darkness of a doomed embrace.

When she mentions these words she was actually referring him to his literary work. She explained that Shakespeare was not a writer who just covering the things around him and depicting the fancy picture. Nor he is a garter who is holding the masks of people. But actually, he is the one who urges people to know the truth even if it is dark or gloomy. He made people ask questions about themselves like who they really are? Despite the cruel reality of their existence people are curious about their own selves.
