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 70.5/100, a mean average of 69.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.4.

Shortlisted for R&B album of the year at the 1996 Grammys. The winner was CrazySexyCool by TLC

Fine, but unmemorable. And looong.

A lot of the tracks have the same sound and feel.

A good follow up to her debut. The tracks that stand out are My Life & You Bring Me Joy but an all round good album.
