ah, now I have a bit of time, I'll comment on this:

and if loefah were to make anything now
wouldn't it be funky?
You seem almost willfully ignorant.
and pretending that you're writing a poem
every second of your life
is the stupidest
most narcissistic
thing I could ever imagine.
It's very clear what you mean because of the format
so I'll take that as a compliment
but I don't understand how you drew the inference
that i thought breakstep sprung up in 2006
when Loefah's dubstep releases in 04 obviously predate that
and built on turn of the century breaks/garage cross-influences.
Just as you expect Loefah to be making funky,
so i hope he will revisit dark garage/early dubstep sounds.
I don't pretend to write poetry but i do sometimes pretend to be willfully ignorant,
particularly if it stirs the grumpy & closed-minded.
And I reserve the right to suggest an idea without fully prescribing it
cos interaction/ conversation is about giving my mind a chance to change.
Maybe it's like putting out a riff or outlining a tune & seeing what others do with it.
I can imagine that poets can't avoid writing poetically
despite people calling them pretentious.
Must be like composers trying not to hear music
