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 59.6/100, a mean average of 57.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 57.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.9.

Although I prefer Will Smith's songs from his "Fresh Prince" days, there still are a few gems on Big Willie Style. You might be better off buying the two singles for "Gettin' Jiggy" and "Miami" instead of investing in buying this whole album.

Meh... Harmless. Nothing fantastic, but nothing offensive either.

Can't listen to this album without thinking of this:

You know what you're getting with Smith - safe rap and good clean fun that won't offend anyone. Plenty of that here. Sounds a bit dated but he's moved on to better things.
