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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

This track is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 92.4/100, a mean average of 90.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 14.5.

I feel like anyone who doesnt like this song or this album just doesnt like hip hop in general. I genuinely dont get how you can like hip hop and not like this album

I absolutely love the bass line in this song and how it evolves througout the track. It's funk from space with a catchy hook from kendrick and plenty of layers of music development to satisfy the critical ear.

The "We Want The Funk" chant at the end is a little corny, but overall this is a great track.

One of the few songs from this album with real single power. The production is wonderful, as Kendrick wants the world to know the king has came back for his throne.
