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 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.7.

except for the very good "rewind", I don't find this EP particularly interesting. Kelela has put out much greater work after this one ("take me apart") where all her influences came together in a seamless package. this feels a bit ponderous and arty for arty's sake, sort of a stepping stone between cut 4 me & take me apart. worth a listen, but you know, don't expect anything great.

An above-average EP from Kelela displaying huge potential to pull something great out of the bag just like FKA twigs. She's almost there, but ultimately the tracks on this EP play it a bit too safe.
