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 has a Bayesian average rating of 65.2/100, a mean average of 62.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 62.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.2.

I did listen to it again. You know it's not bad at all really. Full of personality and mass appeal rap, storytelling, with a wonderful DJ. No it's not in the racing with the best of the genre in this year but a fun light hearted listen.

It's not bad but I mainly just used to listen to that live track which is fantastic with dj jazzy jeff showing off the transformer. I thought the rest was bit cheesy even at the time. Probably not something I'd stick on now. I imagine quite dated now too. Wonder what happened to them....

Better than Will Smith's solo work.
