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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.8/100, a mean average of 78.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

Can’t believe I just listened to this for the first time. This album is super underrated, the production is great, gives me Late Registration vibes (which makes sense considering it’s produced by Ye in 2005). It’s nice to listen to rap and not hear about money drugs and violence

Listen to it ¨, "Life is fast some choose to be quicker"
100/100
what an excellent recod, the best from common and the best kanye wesy production work (apart from his albums)
one of hip hops best
The best produced hip hop album ever. Common's voice is also incredible. Kanye does is again.

Followed the blueprint set by Illmatic. The only album with Kanye's touch that I can stand listening from front to back. One of the finest hip hop albums ever released in my opinion.

Shakes head. Why do I now appreciate Kanye productions? Why have I "slept on" Common for all these years, knowing full well how great his voice and style is? No idea but I do know that (apart from the odd dodgy lyric, it's rap music after all) this is a fine record. Possibly better than resurrection.

Really cool and fun album. It seems like the best way to describe it is that its got a lot of life to it.
85/100 (Very Good)
A great and soulful hip hop album

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
