Rating metrics: Help 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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.2/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.3.

Charli does a good job here of making the unapproachable approachable on this project, since there are certainly more intense hyper pop albums out there. Hyper pop isn't a genre that is all that approachable for the average listener, but if you get it, then you GET IT.

It's also hard to understate how much of a thing this album was. It was everywhere and that both helped and hurt it for different people. It was truly a brat summer.

First I would like to say I like this album... but honestly, if Beyonce, Camila Cabello or Lady Gaga made the same songs, I truly believe this album wouldn't be this highly rated on this website haha

Beyonce album Renaissance is very similar to this album and imo a little better, but yet it's rated lower.... and it came out a year before this album. but anyway, I feel it's still a cool album

This album screams mediocrity in most aspects. Vocals, lyrics, and production. Some parts of some songs would make good electronic songs, but vocals over top don't do it for me. I'll need to jump into her back catalogue to better understand what everyone is raving about.

Charlie is truly a talent, but it cannot be overstated, she has a guaranteed high place in the middle class and it will not be possible to reach the top, but what she is doing deserves honorable recognition

I gave it 3 chances and it sucked more each time. The lyrics make my eyes roll into my skull. I don't understand the hype at all.
