Cannibal Kids - Kate Tempest

Now I know nothing about this next video, or the performer, but spotted it in one of Stig's blog posts. (At least I think it was Stig - it may have been Syntax as they post as Stig & Syntax, but my money's on Stig). I'm never normally one for spoken word ish, or poetry, feeling that the majority of it is pretentious tosh, or just generally not very good. But I watched this clip from beginning to end, and its actually pretty damn great. Kate Tempest has an awesome way with words, lacing them together with effortless ease like a Foot Locker employee with the latest kicks. Anyway, whatever you think about poetry, check this out. Hopefully you'll be impressed in the same way I was.
