On the masterful follow-up to their Mercury Prize-nominated debut, Everybody Down, British poet/rapper Kae Tempest offers a vivid portrait of human failings and worldly tumult as seen through the microcosm of an unnamed South London street at 4:18 a.m. The simplicity of the spoken word is used to great effect as they begin in widescreen, zooming in first on our sun, solar system, and finally on Earth. Tranquil and soft from a distance, the lens soon magnifies a geographical pin prick amid what is soon painted as the unsteady chaos of a city, and with this deft introduction, Tempest tosses the listener into the fray, putting in motion an interlocking group of narratives set to producer Dan Carey's skittering beats and dynamic electro backdrop. The characters of Let Them Eat Chaos are often trapped by circumstance or their own shortcomings, searching for meaning, redemption, or simply relief, and, as of 4:18 a.m., are the only seven people currently awake on their street. In the two years since their debut, Tempest has published not only a new collection of poetry, but their first novel as well, and their skill at storytelling allows them to portray big ideas -- gentrification, climate change, political unrest -- on a small canvas. Half-spoken, half-rapped, the 13 tracks on Let Them Eat Chaos follow the inner and outer journeys of the inhabitants as they leave their private worlds to eventually discover each other's existence. It's a fascinating work of words, for sure, but the weight of Carey's arrangements and Tempest's surprisingly nimble touch as an emcee make for something distinctive and essential.
