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 78.2/100, a mean average of 77.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

Very good album, one of my favourite rap albums. Offence and Selfish the highlights. No weak tracks. And also, kudos for keeping it to 35 minutes and not adding loads of pointless interludes. A very easy listen. Great stuff. (Edited)

Muito bom. O flow e produções de altíssimo nível!
Sometime I Might Be Introvert is my AOTY for 2021, so I thought I should revisit some older Simz material, and I was not disappointed!
This was a cool one. Not my favorite album, but I liked pretty much every song. I don't think I have any highlights, but I was consistently vibing with it. I am a fan.
Good album, a little overrated I would say. (Edited)
