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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.5/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Circles is everything a posthumous album should be: fulfilling an artist's intended vision and completing the important final touches to a closing chapter when they're spiritually not with us.
Posthumous releases are often disappointing. But Mac Miller's Circles is a true pearl. It sounds so nice, smoothy and jazzy. Rest in peace Mac your last work is unexpectedly one of your best.
A beautiful, tragic album from a talented artist that died too young. I've always appreciated Mac Miller's music but never really connected with it in the way so many other people have. With Circles, I feel like I finally have that connection. So many of Miller's lyrics give off a hopeful message. It really seems like in his final months, he was finding the happiness that he so desperately wanted. Makes it all the more tragic knowing the happiness didn't last.
Favorite tracks: Blue World, Good News, Hand Me Downs, Everybody.
Great album, I've been sleeping on Mac Miller's music for his whole life when I should have gave it a chance. RIP
I got to him too late and wish I'd listened when he was still here. Really great chill but thoughtful music.
