[@kylestarrett2569]

Exactly what I was thinking. The only argument against is that LR is a little weaker than the other two, but even that really doesn’t have any true misses, just not as complete as it’s predecessor. Graduation has Barry Bonds and Drunk and Hot Girls which are obviously terrible, but they’re surrounded by so many classics that I honestly think that can be ignored. I don’t think there are any “perfect” albums, but I honestly don’t think it gets any closer than this.

[@arkayv]

@@tomcut2976 Agree 100%. I know this may sound a bit bigoted, but I feel people who say LR is the weakest glanced at the tracklist size one sec and dipped i.e. haven't really listened to it and the people who say Graduation is the best don't realize how poorly aged it is compared to the rest of Ye's discography.

One of my favourite runs is Mac DeMarco’s albums from “2” to “Salad Days” to “This Old Dog”. Three albums that show a progression in maturity, along with slight changes in styles from the youthful jangly electric guitar and often upbeat songs of “2”, to mellow guitar and synth psychedelic introspection on “Salad Days” finishing with mostly bittersweet acoustic songs focusing on changes, family and death. Another interesting one to me is Slowdive’s run from “Just For a Day” to “Souvlaki” to “Pygmalion”.

Peggy's run is perfect, especially in terms of artistic and character growth. Veteran feels like an album borne out of pain, it's intensely dark and at times hard to listen to (in a great way).

Smino's 3 albums (blkswn, NOIR, Luv 4 Rent) and JID's 3 albums (the never story, dicaprio 2, the forever story) are both perfect in my eyes. Saba's 3 (bucket list project, care for me, few good things) is super close but there are definitely misses on bucket list when he was still finding his sound

[@talmadgeskillman7678]

Strongly agree with JID. Just recently into smino so haven’t heard all his stuff yet but what I’ve heard so far is great

[@jaredthomas6698]

That’s interesting ,for me it’s Saba with the perfect three albums and JID and Smino are the ones with the very very rare miss

[@lilyk527]

I love almost every song ever put out by JID, thank you for mentioning him

kendrick's 3 album run is perfect.

[@sandilejwara7174]

Definitely

[@arshitmangi4783]

Nah , if you think damn is perfect you just lack the taste. It had songs like Duckworth, Pride ,lust , dna,xxx humble which were really great. But it had hella lot of below average songs and was not really an album. More like a mixtape. It was so over the place. You people overhyped it so much that Kendrick stopped getting to the level where he used to reach. For your biased reviews we will never get another gkmc and tpab

[@anonymous-yk9sz]

I love the fact that Graydon talked about D’Angelo for his three album run, such a fantastic pick. Super agree with Riley too with Modest Mouse, even though I would go with a different selection for them. Grant’s pick, Homeshake, is hella underrated too.

[@dieumercipourparissud]

[@justkiddingtypebeat]

2 perfect album runs - Blu & Exile - Below the Heavens, Give me my flowers, Miles Natalia Lafourcade - Musas Vol. 1, Musas Vol. 2, Un Canto Por Mexico Vol. 1

[@flobbyrobbo2889]

It's not all by the same artist, but Daytona, Ye and Kids See Ghosts is a perfect trifecta to me.

[@shadie13138]

ik this isn’t really your style but i think the first three mcr albums is a perfect run. the way it starts with a really raw stripped back almost screamo sound with the most metal/hardcore influences with bullets, and then transitions to one of the most influential pop punk albums of all time with three cheers, and then finishing off with their most creative and also commercially successful album in the black parade. i think it shows a great amount of growth, and it’s also all that was envisioned when they started the band. danger days wasn’t supposed to happen (but i love it sm anyways)

[@darkdestroyerza2381]

dark side of the moon, wish you were here, and animals is the best three album run in music. second place is meddle, dark side of the moon, and wish you were here.

[@StarvinLG]

The first three Tribe albums are probably a perfect run for me? Depending on how you feel about People's Instinctive Travels. Also Outkast with ATLiens, Aquemini, and Stankonia in a row, and you can maybe even extend it to Speakerbox/Love Below Other more throwback options, first 3 Velvet Underground Albums, first 3 De La Soul albums, like a bunch of different Beatles ones obviously, definitely Zeppelin, the first (and only) Nirvana records. Maybe the The Bends, OK Computer, and Kid A.

[@unhelpfulrevelations7989]

King Gheedorah - Take Me to Your Leader, Viktor Vaughn - Vaudeville Villain, Madvillain - Madvillainy. All various DOOM aliases. By some coincidence they're probably my three favorite releases of his, and I think they get better as they go along. Take Me To Your Leader is my preferred album using the Operation Doomsday sound pallete, which is a bit lighter and more vintage sounding than the more iconic DOOM sound. This album is atmospheric as hell, filled with '60s monster movie samples that evokes a warm yet subtly eerie sound. DOOM also takes a bit more of a directorial position where other rappers contribute heavily to many of the songs. This album isn't super popular and yet I just love it, and I find myself listening to it a lot. Vaudeville Villain and the Viktor Vaughn persona in general is probably the furthest DOOM experimented from his core sound, and it's an experiment that pays off really well. The beats and atmosphere on here are uniquely cold and uninviting, and the character that DOOM plays feels a lot more brash; younger; hungrier. And the rapping on this project matches that, probably the most technically proficient of his discography. There's not much else to say about this thing. The aesthetic is great, the performances are great, even the interludes are surprisingly creative and entertaining. Most importantly, the songs are just great. Madvillainy is Madvillainy. I have nothing to say about this record that hasn't already been said; it's so lush and colorful, DOOM and Madlib have such good chemistry with their creative vision, you almost would't be able to tell it was a collaborative album. The storytelling is great, the atmosphere is great, the flow of the album is pheneomenal. One of my favorite albums of all time.
