Making three truly great albums has been done by an extremely limited list.

T.I. is that nigga who had nobody but Lil' Wayne who doesn't even really claim the South as competition. And Luda who washed him in the beef they had. Other than them, the mainstream South was D4L, Dem Franchise Boyz and Soulja Boy.
