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 57.6/100, a mean average of 56.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 56.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 27.0.

Abuso um pouco da produção, mas ainda sim é bom. Canções que dominaram as rádios.

After the excellent "Blackout", Britney and her PR team make a move towards brushing up her image after a chaotic 2007, resulting in drab, underwhelming tunes. I'd listen to the tongue-in-cheek "If U Seek Amy" and the decent enough ballad "Unusual You" and dump the rest.

Passable pop album that pales in comparison to its visionary predecessor "Blackout". Weak tea.

She's actually better here then she was at her peak. Womanizer is the type of track that will bring her back. Still, she's no album artist. A few singles and a bunch of filler.
