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 67.9/100, a mean average of 65.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 65.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

This is OK with time. As usual the ratings are wack here but it's true that it's not great. Nice messages... corny or not,, right or wrong.... his heart's in the right place.

Upon his return from a 2004 trip to war-torn regions of Iraq, Israel, and Palestine, Michael Franti released both a documentary film based on his travels and Yell Fire!, his most politically charged album since his days with the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy. Yet this album isn't nearly as dark as you might expect from the subject matter that inspired it. Rather, in Franti's own words, these are "songs about connection to people, and songs about love and life." My favorite track here is the contemplative and affectionate "See You in the Light."
