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 65.3/100, a mean average of 63.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 25.5.

Mais coesa do que os álbuns anteriores. Consegue entreter!
It's funny because although this record is quite cohesive, it's probably Britney's least interesting era. Practically all of these songs are middle-of-the-road, decent tracks (except for the horrendous "Private Show"). Everything is subdued, nothing is really "in your face" except for the lyrics to some tracks where Britney exerts her sexual dominance ("here's *my* invitation baby" on the good opening track, for instance). It's probably in the top half of all of her records and all of "Glory" should be listened to rather than choosing a few hits and disposing of the rest, but yeah this subdued contemporary R&B makes for quite a bland sound overall.
Britney returns (somewhat) to form with a good, understated pop album far greater than its predecessor. I was impressed by the quality of the album; most of the tracks are good ones but there are a couple of blunders including the horrible "Private Show". Simply put, "Glory" marks her best outing since 2011's underrated "Femme Fatale".
