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 72.6/100, a mean average of 68.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.9.

Common is stretching out on this album. Fuller sounds, rougher beats, and more r&b flavour. He's feeling good, and his cockiness is leaking through. Still intelligent, and still possessing one of the smoothest flows in the game.
