#ThreePeat
I came across Evan Auerbach’s tweets on Twitter and he was trying to find out which hip-hop artist had the best 3 consecutive albums. The only guidelines he had were: no live albums, no greatest hits/collections, and of course they have to be 3 in a row by the same artist.
After analyzing some of his suggestions I decided to put together my top 10 list of three-peat albums.
I expect your list to be completely different since it’s open to subjectivity, but how do they compare to yours?
#10 Ludacris (Back for the First Time, Word of Mouf, Chicken-N-Beer)
