I think his best 3 are Bo Jackson, Prince of Tea in China, and Super Tecmo Bo.
My 1st Chemistry Set is great if you want to hear him when he sounds a little more raw and unpolished, and those Al beats are all more similar to his 2000's style if you like those.
But Boldy's pen has become truly insane in these last couple years, and his flows have gotten so much more intricate. I always liked Boldy but was never a huge fan...and from 2020 to now he's definitely in my top 3 most played artists. I've listened to a full Boldy album at least once a week from last August until now. And even from 2021 to now he leveled up his skills even more. I'll put Bo Jackson and Super Tecmo era Boldy up against anyone at the moment.
Manger on McNichols is another very dope project, as is the Boldface EP. Boldface was made during the Tea in China recordings. oh and the albums he did with Real Bad Man are dope too.
Manger is an interesting one because it was recorded over a 15-16 year time period. A lot of that music is super fukking old, but sounds very unique.
Tag me or quote me anytime in here. I’ll share Boldy’s joints here and talk his music as much as you like.

Never really considered having a Top 3, but Trappers Alley 2 is my personal favorite.
I must admit Im not too found of his newer projects. Boldy over those type of beats doesnt appease to me at all.

It's wild how one of his newer releases is a top tier release and there's consensus on that.

100%. His old stuff is dope too. Someone mentioned Art of Rock Climbing. House of Blues is dope.
The Consignment mixtape was my intro to him. That's a fun listen.
But there's no question he's gotten better. He mentioned something about a drug problem derailing him for a bit, and then him just taking the craft more seriously when he came back. Alchemist said they didn't do any work from 2014 until 2019, and then from 2019 to now they've dropped 4 projects.
I think his next project is either produced by V Don or Futurewave. And obviously we'll get another one with Alchemist, they've been recording on the NBA War Leather Tour. And I've heard talks for a long time about a possible Harry Fraud project.
What I really wanna hear is a trio project with Boldy, Rome Streetz, and Stove.
My 1st Chemistry Set is by far his best album, imo. Alchemist's production on it was next level and fit Boldy like a glove.
Everything he's put out is quality but that one will always stand out the most to me.

Price of Tea and 1st Chemistry Set are probably his best projects. All his recent shyt worth checking out.
