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 69.4/100, a mean average of 67.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

After the wonderful Room 25, Sundial leaves me feeling flat.
The hooks come and go and the music doesn’t go very many exciting places even with much of it being solid and rooted in styles that dazzle me with very little effort. Lyrically, Noname no doubt spits impressively all over the album, but I’m not swayed much by her attempts at profundity this time around.
But I’ll at least give her credit, 1 of her 3 Kendrick disses was worth being on this record. *rolls eyes*
A number of the features feel random and disconnected from the entire project and Noname’s contributions to it. And uh. That Jay Electronica verse. Yeah..
There are a couple tracks here Noname knocks out of the park, there are a couple that might as well be wallpaper. Overall, I’m left feeling sour over Noname’s clear disregard of her complete artistic dictation as well I her wishy-washy morality that will forever cast a towering shadow over this album.
She could have been one of the greats too. (Edited)
Doesn’t reinvent the wheel but enjoyed this one a surprising amount despite the low level of hype I feel surrounded it. (Edited)
