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 65.0/100, a mean average of 64.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 64.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 25.2.

It's constantly fascinating how adaptable this ballad singer with a vocal register that extends to birds is. She first tried Janet's new jack swing, and now follows in the footsteps of Mary J. Blige with hip hop.

Disco mais independente da grande artista feminina dos anos 90. Repleta de clássicos.

I'm actually finding it hard to hate on this. It's not something I'm likely to ever listen to again, but it's got more depth than I expected.

I love this album a big step forward in sound & overall feel to anything she had recorded before. Butterfly, 4th Of July, My All,The Roof, Breakdown, Whenever You Call & Outside make this a brilliant RnB album
This album is the best R&B.Love her voice and art.
