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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.6/100, a mean average of 79.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.1.

Hip-hop AOTY. El-P's production skills remain massively underrated. 2014 desperately needed this album.
Definitely the best hip-hop album of the year, El-P and Killer Mike can do no wrong right now. This album goes so hard!
Seriously, listening to 40 mins of El-P and Killer Mike calling out all the fuckboys in the world is as good as it gets. Yeah i know that's not representative of the entire album but its bloody refreshing to finally hear a hip hop record with the balls to ignore label stereotypes yet still be as unforgiving and as hedonistic as a proper rap record should be.
Both these guys have tremendous flow and ability. Hell, their teamwork is so fluid you forget these guys have only been working with one another for a couple of years.
With harsh, beefy production and hilariously-sordid lines like "you can all run naked backwards through a field of dicks", it becomes fairly apparent that RTJ2 is the album that 2014 desperately needed.
Best Track: Angel Duster
Not going to lie
The first four songs might be the best thing to ever happen to Hip-Hop.

They are still runnin' them jewels fast. A friend of mine dissed this album, saying that the lyrics were only about putting down fuckboys and whatnot. I don't think he even listened to the album, as it has two of the most relevant voices of protest and calling-out-shit of our times.
