"brief word bout me & these writes of mine"
  by 11th Wonduh


"i'm an artist & i'm serious bout my shit"
erykah badu - opening to tyrone

amalgamation
of hip-hop, spoken word
funk, jazz & soul
.
evolved from a freestylist
to poet, to writer, to an artist
of conceptual imagination
.
a lost art, the true essence of
speaking to the masses via emotion & experience
creatively, the soul is feelin it, you gon feel it
.
creativity i possess, i burn in
formulating, building & evolving myself as a writer
refusing to be pigeonholed
.
w/ these writes of mine, the objective is clear
to inspire, to reflect, to open minds & recently w/ these
seductive pieces, get you & yours open at night
.
intellectually gifted, meaning, i refuse to dumb my shit down
hell i admit, my shit can be very comprehensive & is not for everybody
i speak with honest sincerity w/ that one
.
having said all of this, no i'm not popular, well respected
not popular, don't really concern myself on who's the g.o.a.t
((furthermore, no one here's a god, the authority, self-proclaimed king))
since many here tend to base their decisions on ###'s & not art
.
figured i'd tell you the real on how i feel
pretty much, i've grown a disdain (karma @ work, maybe)
creatively i'm at both a crossroad & an impasse
.
feel like i'm prepared to move forward, but never forgetting
that my voice helped propel some form of poetical movement
as an artist, at some point, evolving is necessary
.
& right now, i'm simply evolving
.
w/ that, if you looking for dis poems
vulgar poetry, gossip, souljah boy writings
straight up fake shit
.
then chances are, my ass ain't for you
real poets, push up your human no2's & bics

this is a great insite to yourself as an artist I would say you are Word wise, yours are masterfully posed, with well placed wit words, wisdoms, truth talk, and tell-it-like-I-is lines. keep them comming

you know, you are an inspiring person Wonduh, you always have been for you. You keep your craft elevated and it's not because you think you're exclusive or whatever but because like you said, you want to educate. I applaud you on these philosophies because they are the same that i follow. I'm always been a follower and reader of your poetry, you have always had my utmost respect and so when you address something like this in plain english *chuckles* i know you just want to shake people and i tot...

i guess i'm a student myself with this, cause there are some writers who i'm still trying to learn from. i just think w/ me, my frustrations have boiled over to a point where i've pretty grown a disdainment for much of this shit here. maybe it's cause i refuse to read or deal w/ bullshit, you & i both know that bullshit its pretty much the norm. & i think that's more of the concern than anything, cause you know, 11th ain't dumbin it down for anyone, ain't using my pieces to be a propaganda mac...

some of the realest shit you ever wrote.... I once got into a heated debated about you and ur writing... why was I a fan.... and I simply stated.. I am a fan because you a teacher of the art... and me as a student.. I wanna learn everything I can learn... simply put... some say they dont understand a good majority of wht u write.. I say they mind to weak and feeble to comprend it in the first place... some 1 once told me they didnt understand bout 50% of ya write and I said I since I been a fan....
