GKMC, TPAB, DAMN is the best classic album 3-peat in hip hop history
The only other ones I can think of are
Those are some great ass albums but GKMC, TPAB, and DAMN are beyond great man... One is compared to being this generations Illmatic, the next is one of the most critically acclaimed rap album of all time, and the next is a tripple platinum Pulitzer Prize winner that can be played top to bottom or in reverse 😳 Kendrick different bro 🤦🏽♂️ I can see why he ain’t drop. If you set the bar for that level of quality you don’t want to mess up your legacy by putting out just anything. Recently revisited all three and I’m blown away at how legendary these albums are
Edit: After some more thought and feedback I wanted to add these as honorable mentions:
Fantasy, Yeezus, Pablo (only one who did it twice )
Take Care, NWTS, IYRTITL (“Retail Tape” or not I gotta give it to him)
Everything else I saw itt either wasn’t hip-hop or was a reach
And Kendrick’s 3 piece still reigns supreme for me (even over both Ye’s)
yep one of the greatest to do it
op name
I only see facts here.
Some people gonna dispute it but at the end of the day, it is what it is.
Easily
Reach
Great albums but Vol 1 and 2 ain’t on that level and Hov is my goat
Sure bro
DAMN and TPAB ain’t half as good as GKMC
tpab defintely better and damn's just as good as gkmc
Easily
I can’t be mad at anyone who says this but Kendrick outranks for me. The creativity and musicality on these were incredible but Kendrick came with creativity, musicality AND god teir rapping ability. Kanye definitely was spitting but Kendrick skill is unmatched
