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 62.6/100, a mean average of 59.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 59.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 26.5.

It doesn't highlight her voice as purely and powerfully as any subsequent albums, but it's a great collection of pop songs from an all-star pop artist
Good voice, but the production gets in the way and makes it too hard to appreciate it at times. There are moments where it just becomes the average 90's early 00's RnB with good vocals. The songwriting is pretty weak at some moments; too cliche and too safe. Still, I went in expecting crap and there were plenty of decent to good songs.
Good pop rock album. Best 10 songs average is 84,5/100 and the album can get good 85/100. Best songs are "Low" and "Beautiful Disaster" both 90/100, followed by "Just missed the train" and "You thought wrong" both 85/100. All other songs in the region of 75-80/100. The successor album "Breakaway" is far better.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
