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 71.7/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.2.

This one is a grower it keeps getting better. Prince uses an updated sound and has some excellent songs like Art Official Cage, Clouds, Breakdown, The Gold Standard, Breakfast Can Wait and Funknroll.
Give this one another spin. Try and separate it from Plectrum Electrum, which was just okay.
This is a fantastic record.
Time has passed since my first comment... it is indeed a grower. Not one of his best though.
Where are the songs? Sounds like a bad sample of contemporary R&B.
