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 69.1/100, a mean average of 67.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.3.

I prefer this incarnation of P.M. Dawn to the material found on earlier albums - more focused on singing vs. rapping. The subject matter remains virtually unchanged, focusing on empowerment and philosophizing. The closing medley is infectious, featuring total reworkings of Prince and the Revolution's "1999", Talking Heads' "Once In A Lifetime" and Nilsson's "Coconut".
Downtown Venus and 945 are 2 of the best tracks they ever did. After that, they pretty much lose me on this one.

They continue their highly-philosophical-r&b/hip-hop-to-the-brink-of-obfuscation music from "this bliss album" with the only modification unfortunately being less rapping. I like Prince Be's delivery, but he chose to appeal to a broader audience...all while musing on his own personal gravity, christ consciousness and grooving in "downtown venus". Think of a more instrospective and philosophical de la soul and you have an idea. The "fantasia" covers medley is also pretty hot.
