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 has a Bayesian average rating of 61.3/100, a mean average of 60.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 60.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

@corenfro: Other than that it is rap-singing like 808s, the only one that is really derivative is the song he did with Kanye.

"Kanye's worst project"... what?

"wannabe gangster" implying real gangsters exist and it's not just all boasting (2pac did ballet in his teens).

"abysmal" haha (just the fact that you use that word)

It has a nostalgic feel to it, but all that is probably idiosyncratic. It was a rushed project.

So derivative of Kanye's 808's and heartbreaks. When you start a career being derivative of Kanye's worse album that's sad. Some of the music here isn't terrible, but then the listener is hit with some trite overused wannabe gangster cliche lyrics. Drake drops a few bars here and there that are clever but on the whole I feel like the maturity of these lyrics are pretty abysmal.

Not really his own yet... it's a young kid finding his sound, but relying too much on the cliched themes of fame, money and women.

It's still his weakest album, but I'd give it much more than a 74.

I know its a generalization, but why is it that all freshman albums by rappers end up being very amateur and unoriginal? Good album, not terrible, but certainly not worth several replays. It has its moments, but as a whole, it doesn't do justice like his second and third album.
