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 71.0/100, a mean average of 69.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

Lil Nas X’s greatest strength has always been self-awareness. He has always known what he was about and what to do with that. “Montero” gains strength from his sexuality and anxiety about success. “Industry Baby” is a self-affirming banger about overcoming one hit wonder status. The Jack Harlow feature is hilarious and has great charisma with X. “That's What I Want” is breezy, catchy, and extremely effective at getting the message out. Unfortunately, the album is limited by its production and lyrical depth. Lil Nas X’s voice is a far too clean. The smoothness makes the serious moments sound chipper and the more excited moments feel almost like parody. The lyrics pose interesting ideas about self-exploration and relationships but are only one or two lines deep. Longer verses could have really helped flesh feelings and boost emotional impact. “Am I Dreaming” is a weak ending with its briefness and the purposeless Miley Cyrus feature. “Montero” shows that despite its flaws, Lil Nas X is going to stick around for a while.

Good album from Lil Nas X, never thought I would like this that much. Loved That's what I want, Lost in the citadel and tales of dominica.

A bit overproduced, that's all, but this guy has nice tunes. He's shown succesfully that he's not a one-trick pony and that he's in it for the long run, and I'm rooting for him. I hope he keeps subverting and trolling the hip hop culture until the day he retires.
