Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 75.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

under rated but I guess I can sort of understand why some people might skim by it...

Much more focused than De La Soul is Dead, but still not at the level of their debut.
This album is the epitome of underrated, it should be considered a rap classic. It is subversive, political, funny, deep, so much happening, the lyrics are so rich it takes many listens to get all. I consider it by far the best De La Soul, and their 3 previous albums are all rap classics.
