This sounds a bit too broad question. Have you done some basic research on the topic on your own, eg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerr_metric? If so, please refine the question to be more specific

This would be an essay on the differences between the Schwarzschild and Kerr metrics.

You could look at chapters 17 and onward of http://www.eftaylor.com/exploringblackholes/

@tuomas Indeed I have done some research but there is no similar question on this site so I figured that I should ask one!

How does a spinning black hole affect space-time compared to a non-spinning black hole?
