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 63.5/100, a mean average of 56.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 56.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 25.3.

I really love this album! She does the reggae vibe well while still keeping her signature sound, feel and personality.
Possibly the worst album I have ever had the misfortune to waste money on; fortunately it was in the bargain bin. Just awful. Embarrassing. I guess it hurts more because I so loved her early stuff and she has such a great voice when she chooses to use it.

What? This is really good. Rated so low.. basically Reggae O'Connor, her voice fits very nicely with the genre imo. Very chill and cool.
