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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 85.8/100, a mean average of 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 85.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

Pretty good album.
Amazing production, clever bars. A perfect hip hop duo.
A solid hip hop album that is very engaging and stays fresh throughout the whole run time. The flow of the album is great and this makes for a very smooth listen as each song fits together really well. It is also experimental and multi-layered making it enjoyable to revisit as you can find a lot of stuff you missed before such as some genius sample work. Overall, this is a strong hip hop album that is hugely influential and is a must listen due to its importance.
For now some of the best production I heard on an hip-hop album (though Liquid Swords is still the king of productions imo), but the rapping seems to lack passion.

I like the comment suggesting that this record is like a comic book set to hip hop. Fun beats, great lyrical references. My biggest wish was that the songs were longer, letting Doom flow for longer.
