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 is rated in the top 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

Good, dubstep-like production, but lyrics and vocals aren't that compelling for this album that's following the new alt-r&b model as weeknd that has become so indie-popular.
"Cut 4 Me" is an impressive debut from Kelela which succeeds because of her lyrical ability as well as the neat production which ties in alternative R&B and nightclub influences. Kelela's vocals are also competent, however there's something missing... the record as a whole feels somewhat bloodless and rudimentary which separates Kelela from the top-tier of electronic/alternative R&B artists like Solange, James Blake or FKA twigs. Nevertheless, it is a record worth paying some attention to.
It's consistent throughout, but I pretty much agree with paladisiac's comment. I'm really glad she upped her game for her debut LP "Take Me Apart" which I strongly recommend.
