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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.5.

Produção impecável! Lindíssimo!
A consistently good record with some exceptional highlights - "Oh Sheit" & "A Message for Austin". I would happily place it alongside Thundercat's debut; both are very interesting, but not amazing, records.
Nonetheless, this album is a worthwhile listen and possibly a step-up from its predecessor because a more mature Thundercat is able to fully realize the majority of tracks, instead of leaving them as half-baked sketches.
Pure bliss. Not sure there's been a better album released this decade - I come back to this on a weekly basis, only to find myself entranced every time by Thundercat's breezy falsetto, his spidery basslines, his deft, unpredictable composition, FlyLo's subtly psychedelic, starry-eyed synths, the driving percussive ticks, and the open-ended lyrical ruminations on life and death and friendship and making the most of the good times. It's an envy-inducingly easy mixture of funk, jazz, electronica, prog rock and R'n'B which - even after countless listens - still reveals something new every time, and an album that relaxes and excites me in equal measure. This record could only possibly have been made in this decade, and yet it sounds completely out of time, straddling multiple trends across multiple eras whilst defiantly refusing to be pinned to any of them. Absolutely gorgeous, and one of my favourite albums of all-time. I believe that in years to come it will obtain cult classic status, a record bizarrely underappreciated in its own time that will only continue to grow in stature. If you've ignored this record, or perhaps only listened once or twice before dismissing it as lightweight and lacking focus (as I did), I implore you to go back and visit it. If it clicks for you like it has for me, you'll have a favourite for life.
I love it when somebody comments on an album by an artist they clearly aren't very familiar with and decides that an artist that they are familiar with was responsible for everything they liked about the album. It's great and not at all boring, predictable, lazy or disrespectful.
What an incredibly disappointing follow-up to Golden Age. Along with not being very engaging most of the time, many of the tracks don't even feel finished with how poorly they are mixed. More tracks needed to be as fun as Oh Sheit It's X and as ambitious as the closing track.
