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 80.1/100, a mean average of 80.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.1.

The best solo album from Black Thought imo great production from Danger Mouse. Belize was great.

This is insanely good, revelatory even. Black Thought at his best since early Roots, Danger Mouse providing a very clean and modern take on classic beats, and a star studded list of features, each proving why they need to be included rather than being shoved in with nothing to do. Aquamarine is the key outstanding track, but Belize with the late MF Doom and Strangers with A$AP Rocky and Run the Jewels could just as easily hold that title.

Uniformly good if not quite transcendent.
There's been a really strong offering of old school style rap albums this year such as 'Aethiopes' by Billy Woods and Conway The Machine's 'God Don't Make Mistakes' and this is one to add to that list.
