Blueprint 1-3 vs Carter 1-3 - Overall, which 'trilogy' is stronger?

**beebji** · 05-10-2022, 04:06 PM

All 6 albums are good but I have to give it to C1-3 here. I would rank them as such from 'worst' to best...

Blueprint 3
Tha Carter
Blueprint 2
Tha Carter III
Blueprint
Tha Carter II

The Black Album is a lot stronger than C2 imo, in fact I'd say it's the strongest hiphop album front to back of all time. But out of the BP series...BP1 has too many weaker tracks similar to C3 but it seems to be revered way more highly than the latter whereas I don't think there's much of a difference in quality between the two. BP3 I never cared for at all, it had some humongous hits but I'm a bit lukewarm on like literally all of those songs lol and the rest of the album is meh. BP2 I do have a soft spot for and the production is great but there are not many absolutely killer tracks on it. Hovi Baby is an all timer though!

And yeah Carter has 5 albums so it's not a trilogy but who gives a shit, it's just a dumb poll.

it's not even close, Carter series takes the win. Blueprint 1 is one of the best hip hop albums ever but it's still not better than C2 or C3, neither is The Black Album.

Yeah that's true, i think it would probably go to Blueprint on 'neutral' ground. They'd be dead wrong though!

I doubt many people have listened to any of The Blueprint albums here, let alone all 3.

No disrespect to The Blueprint series but Tha Carter series hands down.

The Blueprint 3 was pretty weak compared to the first 2.

Meanwhile first 3 Carter's were great.

C3 > BP1 > C2 > C1 > BP3 > BP2

All good albums but Carter series is comfortably better
