Rating metrics: Help 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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.5/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

I love this. The lyrics are dark, provocative, and conscious. The beats are swirling and beautiful. There are some great songs in here, but the overall album structure leaves a little something to be desired.

I was never a fan of Milo's name-dropping, reference-for-the-sake-of-reference style (on display on Toothpaste Suburb), but this is entirely different. He's still spinning some pretty unique, quirky rhymes, but it sounds like there's a purpose behind it. Songs like Rabblerouse and An Encyclopedia, which is the album's highlight, have a conscious side, and even the artier tracks seem to have more weight behind them than anything I had heard from him before. I'm also a fan of short rap albums like this, because they tend to be wordy and dense, which I enjoy.
