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 68.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Compare this to Hotter than July. Which is better? July. But they aren't much different. This has great vibes throughout, not a bad/unlistenable song. You can absolutely listen to this as an album. Overjoyed could be in his top 3 of sweet songs not falling over into sappiness, and Wonder has a lot of attempts at that throughout the years. When I can associate a part of my life with an album that's a good sign. I feel like the negative ratings come from judging against his golden period, this isn't that, but it is a really good album that should be in the top 3000 overall, not just in the top 3000 of the 80s.

Surprisingly not terrible. I actually kinda like it. Love the singles. Overjoyed has always been one of my favorites. Part Time Lover is catchy and fun. Never In Your Sun is pretty cool. I like it even though it's not during his classic era.
