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 78.3/100, a mean average of 77.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.7.

This album is hipnotic and I absolutely love the dreamy aspect of It. "Flight 22", "In my Dreams" are some of my favorites, and "Gotta Get Up" is one the best interludes ever.

Really this feels like an album only worth listening the whole way through, but once you do, you get so immersed in her world that you don't want to ever get out of It.

Kali killed it here. With a wide variety of styles, she nails every single one.

Simmering pop perfection - Kali seems to be a total chameleon, adapting and performing no matter where the songs take her. As a collection of songs, this year's best release, and some really, catchy songwriting.

A lovely, chilled-out record from Kali Uchis that deserves all the praise it's been showered with. Very accomplished for a debut isn't it, it sounds like an assured album from a veteran musician.

If this were three or four tracks shorter, this would be a classic. Instead, it's a little too long, and merely kinda great.

Absolute masterpiece! Saw her live as opening act for Lana Del Rey and she is an actual goddess. Her EP Por Vida was very promising and she absolutely delivered. Favorites include "Miami", "Flight 22", and "Dead To Me" Can't wait to see what she does next!

Kali's vocals on here are both its greatest strength and biggest weakness. At times, her vocals are sensual, groovy, and entrancing. At other times, they can seem uninspired and one-dimensional. Still, a great blend of R&B and Latin influences, making for one of my favorites of 2018.

Sure to be regarded as one of the finest additions to the 2010s alternative/neo-RnB wave. Isolation is confident, summery and innovative, with Uchis' alluring voice being the real driver for the record. The smooth blend of contemporary RnB and Latin-influenced beats feels really well done, while the eclectic range of featured artists properly help to expand the sound of the record. Tyrant in particular really hits the mark thanks to Jorja Smith's fantastic voice.

A strong debut for Kali Uchis and already guaranteed to be one of my favourite records of the year.
