My bad, yes the power cypher 96 mixtape!
Mixtape era Canibus. You should also revisit the DJ Tony Touch 50 mixtapes that featured freestyles from the emcees of that era.
You should dive into his influences from the 90s: Large Professor, Q-Tip, Pete Rock.
If the 00s, definitely Madlib
Should we blame canibus or wyclef?
In college Xzibit's What U See is What U Get blew my mind due to its faked one shot style: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gddQhQnwZIY.

Mos is frustrating to me because he's so dope yet so artistically inconsistent when it comes to output-we get the too occasional amazing guest verse but his post Black on Both Sides albums are either too uneven or stingy.
That's also the new album I'm most looking forward to checking out. I feel like he's retained his signature dusty sound much more than a lot of other rappers from his generation
I've always preferred this version over the message remix
