Question: British drum and bass group Reprazent released the album "In the Møde" that featured this American musician, poet, rapper, and activist who left his band in which year?
Sentence (from "El Oso"): Before starting work on the album, the band toured with Full Cycle DJs Krust and Die (in fact, their band with Roni Size, Reprazent, won the Mercury Prize in 1997 and thus put the kibosh on a notion to have them produce)—and by a scattershot approach to production: Tchad Blake (Soul C's "Ruby Vroom", Latin Playboys, Sheryl Crow), Pat Dillett (They Might Be Giants, Doveman, Mary J. Blige), and British drum and bass DJ Optical (Goldie, Grooverider, Ed Rush).
Relevant evidence: No
