A friend of mine got me into them back in high school (early 00s). It was nice seeing Asian American bros doing their thing in hip-hop, and of course it fit into the underground style that I was way into at the time. I didn't care so much that CHOPS didn't sample, but I guess some people found that to be cool.

Peril-L is a medical researcher now, and like someone else mentioned Styles Infinite is a M.D. I remember reading about CHOPS doing some stuff for Lonely Island a couple of years ago.
