Das Efx should never be compared to Skee-Lo. Das Efx went plat and had people copying that iggity shyt all over the place. Even hopped on a Cube track just to do the hook which was unheard of back then especially with artist from two different coasts
When has group competition ever been a thing in hiphop? Groups never stopped other groups from success and your answer is Rae Sremmurd
Skee-Lo went platinum and name these rappers copying Das EFX besides Fu Snickens or however you spell that shyt. Das EFX must have been big on the east because they had zero influence in that gulf.
It's cool to have an opinion, but you can't quote some bullshyt from a single when they have hundreds of mixtape/album cuts that actually have bars. I'm not saying they're on Lupes level of rapping, but stop acting like these nikkas are slouches. I think a lot of yall nikkas problems is all you know or care to know is what you hear on ther radio or whatever, meanwhile people like me been listening to them for damn near a decade so we know their true skills.
Das Efx helped push that tongue twisting style of rap to the mainstream. We may never have heard Tung Twista or Bone. They were the precursor to that. Fu Snickens were actual clones but a ton of rappers were using that style in their rhymes from Jay Z to Big L. There presence was felt after they fell off. Whether they had influence in the gulf or not is irrelevant. No disrespect but nobody was checking for anything from the gulf in 91. Hip hop was still basically still east and west
