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 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

I think it's quite good! Love Santigold, she seems to get a bad wrap, not sure why. Sometimes music doesn't have to be completely original to be good. She's good at what she does! Some reviews seem kinda harsh.

the ole sophomore slump. if you ignored mia, her ideas seemed fresh last time around. This time, her hip-hop/r&b/indie ideas all sound muddled. Just a little more focus and editing could've went a long way.

Meh. She tried. The production and beats sound like something I would make and decide to eventually scrap. It's nothing horrible by any means though, it's just average. She still has 'Les Artists' under her belt though.

nice enough but a bit of a disappointment comparing to Santogold (album).

Some good songs but I expected much more after their first excellent album.
