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 70.0/100, a mean average of 68.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

"Kanawa" is beautiful but a bit repetitive. Nahawa's vocals are gentle and passionate. She seems fully invested in every line she sings. The guitar working is nimble but never moves past the initial pattern. More varied instrumentation or song pacing would greatly help with this issue. The lyricism seems to be meaningful but unfortunately I have not been able to find a translation.

Gentle and soothing. If I understood the lyrics, it may have been a different experience, as I understand she is quite political. The voice is beautiful though and the instrumentation is excellent.

Unfortunately, I never managed to connect with this despite giving it multiple chances, all the overwhelming passion that comes out of it didn't touch me at all.
