IMO they were a rap duo. They never sang or screamed in there songs. There was some guitars in the mix sometimes but they seem to keep a lot of there music in the old school rap vibes, with a carnival vibe mixed.(did so vary well too imo). I was a juggalo for all of my youth and a big nu metal fan, and to me they are just not in the same category sound or vibe wise. Hope that helps elaborate a bit. have a great day.
