Best Mixtape Trilogies
After watching Floyd Mayweather destroy Shane Mosley, we spent the rest of the weekend rocking out to Jadakiss' latest mixtapeThe Champ Is Here 3. Whether it be three-day weekends, threesomes, or a three-part mixtape series, Complex loves things that come in 3s. Rappers do too because a classic mixtape trilogy has been known to resusitate a career bogged down by label drama or provide an outlet when you've got a shitload of street-ready songs for release.
This month, we'll hopefully get to see Royce Da 5'9 drop The Bar Exam 3 (slated for May 31st) and Cam'Ron's Boss of All Bosses 2.5 (not sure if this exactly qualifes as a trilogy, but it's slated for next week) touch down. While you're waiting for those, check out our list of The Best Mixtape Trilogies.
