Rating metrics: Help 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 79.0/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

A really good album. I don't like R&B usually but this is punctuated with funky grooves and great sounds. Love it. It begs to be listened to closely from start to finish. People who compare this to only Kendrick and Chance need to expand their musical references beyond the last five years, I think.

My initial impression was this wasn't much of a special record but I was completely wrong. There's so much stuff happening here: classic and contemporary R&B, dance beats, smooth rock. It's modern, but deeply rooted in a retro appeal. The performer is fantastic, and his style on some of this compares faithfully to Kendrick Lamar. Some of the most energetic performances I've heard all year are on this record. So hard to pick just one good track. Highly Recommended.

Really catchy jazz vibes. Reminds me of mid-90's bumps. Really recommend it as an accesible, easy-listener.

I hope to soak up 1% of this man's style. What a story. Best rap/r&b album of the year. This man has already put his name in conversations among the best of the best. From yesterday and today. A true talent. Approachable music and SO much fun.
