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 56.7/100, a mean average of 55.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 55.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 23.7.

Simple pop that established her brand and one of the most likeable pop acts today. Also, songs on here are the most suited to her voice. Almost like pop punk (but more on the pop side) a la Paramore

Her most popular albums have her half naked on the cover. Smart girl, she knows what sells.

It's okay in some areas, and boring in others. It's a Pop/Pop Rock album, so it's appeal lies mainly in the mainstream market.
