Subject: My Writer Friends

A lot of my friends that write experiment with different styles to display their diverse tastes. I think that's awesome. Personally, I'm not really a fan of many different styles. I feel like if the expression has substance or a point to make it's going to come across regardless of format or style or meter.
I'm not trying to make excuses for lack of personal research. I feel that I have sought out new styles and methods but I'm not a huge fan of many styles. I seem to be a fan of more unconventional, unorthodox writers. I feel there's a sense of innovation you expand on when you experiment artistically.
I feel like poetry could use an artist that presents a new style to the form. I think that maybe in the next few years there will be a prominent writer that presents an entirely new way of approaching format, structure, rhymescheme and meter.
I wonder if any new music-forms will be created in my lifetime. I wonder if there will be a music-form that will be made in the future and how will that effect people's thoughts on Hip-Hop and Rock n' Roll as genres. A few rock artists say rock and roll is dead and some Hip-Hop artists say that Hip-Hop is dead.

I wouldn't mind if hip-hop became more spoken-word and if the subject matter was more abstract-expressionist. I imagine a generation of kids that gather in cyphers and actually freestyle with no meter or cohesive subject matter in melodic cadences.
A spoken-word style with no rules or specific subject matters.
A style based on abstract improvisations.
