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 has a Bayesian average rating of 69.4/100, a mean average of 67.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.7.

well, before there was boyz ii men, abc and bbd, there was new edition, and the member whose career took off the most from that pre-NKOTB boy band was bobby brown. "don't be cruel" marks the apex of his r&b/hip-hop career. This album is half hits & half filler approximately, so if you stick to the first 6 tracks, then you'll hear the best bobby b. has to offer.
