The achievement includes First Week Out, Viking: 10 Year Anniversary, and God & Time, released between August 2024 and June 2026.
First Week Out debuted at No. 8 in August 2024, following Kartel’s release from prison.
He returned to the chart with Viking: 10 Year Anniversary, which debuted at No. 10 in February 2025.
The anniversary project revisited material from his 2015 album Viking (Vybz Is King), which peaked at No. 3.
