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 is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.3/100, a mean average of 76.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.2.

Slightly underrated on this site, quite overrated by Rolling Stone and Apple Music.
Winner of R&B album of the year at the 1999 Grammys
I think as a hip-hop and soul album it is exceptional. The few “rap” tracks though are the lowest. I appreciate the Christian themes throughout, and I do think it’s a great album. RS Mag definitely overrates it, but then again, it is RS.
Album of the year at the Grammys in 1999.
It's a good album but Rolling Stone considered this album the best ever...it's simply ridiculous, I even think a Taylor Swift album was in the Top 10 or 20.
The guy who ordered this list to be published cannot be a serious person.

love, love, love this album!
Groovy, yes, but overrated. Lauryn Hill is a fine lyricist with a strong voice, but I don't hear the "masterpiece" that others do. Just a good blend of hip hop and soul that doesn't reinvent any wheels.
Arriving at the right time and sounding like nothing before it, the album is a masterful fusion of soul, R&B, reggae, and hip hop.
The songwriting is sincere and memorable. The philosophical skits on love and relationships adds to the album while paying tribute to other Hip Hop concept albums that came before it (i.e., Three Feet High and Rising).
A number of strong album tracks and a few radio hits helped to propel this album to multiplatinum status with a resounding legacy some have defined as an epoch in Hip Hop music.
It certainly stands the test of time. The only thing that keeps the album from being perfect is it is a little on the long side.
9.5/10.
Definitely one of the best concept albums I’ve heard. Overall a little bloated though, the A side is absolutely stellar but B side begins to drag its feet a bit. I think a good pair of shears could have really propelled this album over the top. Nice production as well, it’s gets slightly too clean for my taste at times, but then again it is R&B. 8.6/10
The album feels genuinely personal -- while also connecting with the world. Her lyrics are sharp and she shows off her vocal versatility.
