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 71.8/100, a mean average of 70.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

Maybe not as good as some make out but pretty good all the same. It's not an all out classic. The first track obviously is and the next two which I think were also singles are great too. The rest is not quite up to this level.

One of the seminal old-school hip-hop albums. Modern hip-hop owes so much to this. Renegades of Funk is a highlight.
