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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 75.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.2.

I can't get behind blu's style of story telling. Boring and bragadocious is pretty much how I would describe it. He constantly marks him self as having greater for sight then everybody else, comes off as pretty lame to me. And stop mentioning you age holy fucking shit man I get it.

Beats were not my favorite style either but they were passable.

Show Me The Good Life is a great song. An underground hip-hop treasure. The rest of the album is still very consistent, just not mind-blowing.

Below the Heavens by Blu and Exile is in my opinion the greatest album of all time. With songs like "Show Me the Good Life" and "In Remembrance" its easy to see why.
