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 65.3/100, a mean average of 63.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 22.9.

Very surprised at the low rating for this... I think there's a stigma and snobbery around Craig David that I don't understand. I can't fathom how an album like Stankonia is ranked so far above this. Fill Me In, Rendezvous and 7 Days are exceptional. Some of the songs are a bit samey I'll give you that, and every other song beginning with "Craig David, it's another one" does grate slightly but I can't take away from the music on this album. It's brilliant. And I'm not necessarily a fan of this type of music either.

I like the vibe.

The most unremarkable album I've probably ever heard however.
