The trilogy holds a special place in my heart, it being the first album cycle I was actually apart of. I listened to the albums on repeat when they first came out, and really enjoyed the more simple/stripped back sound compared to 21cb (not to say I don't enjoy that sound, it was just a nice change of pace). That being said, it's been awhile since I actually listened all the way through the trilogy. I've got a solid (large) hand full of songs that I love, and I listen to them when they come up in my GD playlist. While I don't think the trilogy was GD's best work, there are many good songs that came out of it that seem to get overlooked due to the bad rep the 3 albums get as a whole.
