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 70.0/100, a mean average of 68.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.1.

Weird time to start listening to Drake. I've heard him on Sicko Mode, Meltdown, & (ironically enough) Poetic Justice. Other than that, I've never heard a full Drake album before. I wasn't expecting much, but there's some great moments on this. The production in most instances is fantastic, and Drake sounds like he really cares about his output on this one, even if by now his flow and his ability to mix R&B with Hip-Hop is a bit stale. Tuscan Leather is probably the best cut here, but it's not the only good song here. Color me pleasantly surprised.

Bom álbum de hip hop, bastante elementos de pop muito bem colocados. Incrivelmente não ficou muito datado.

Many highs and lows on this album. But all in all this album made me believe Drake had fallen off and he had had his best time.

Introspective solitude with self reflective tendencies if I were to describe the overall vibe of this album. Perfect for autumn time. I am not a Drake fan in general but this album is a solid, cohesive piece of work that has the right vibe to it. If you're a hip hop fan, it's something to consider. Don't hate on it if you haven't tried to immerse yourself in the textures and atmospheres it creates

My favourite Drake album. It's his best along with 'Take Care'.

On par-ish w/ Take Care, wasn't the dramatic step forward artistically that take care was from thank my later. Still waiting on Drake to come out with something really great. He needs to take more time between records and get rid of the filler as per usual - which is my largest complaint about Drake - beyond the appeal to mainstream tropes and immature lyrics.

He's trying. It's too bad - I actually like Drake as a public figure more than I like his music. This is just alright.

Brilliant stuff, and amazing flow in the album. I was not expecting this, I have missjudged Drake my whole life
