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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 75.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

I think that this album will move up in terms of ranking when it will be getting better known. Even if he sings in French it doesn't seem to be a problem to have high positions in non French speaking countries. Logic, if you listen to papatouai or to formidable you understand why.

When your music is good it can transcend language barriers like this album does. Its up there with Settle as one of the best house albums this year. Batard is my personal highlight.

This music is super catchy for everyone, and I think that's why it's getting popular among non-french speakers, but understanding his lyrics is key to make this album one of your favorites.

J'ai adoré à la première écoute. Un peu d'overdose après , tellement rabâché sur les ondes.. A réécouter dans quelques mois pour voir comment cela va vieillir..
