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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.5.

“So far today: 3/5 Stars After really enjoying their first couple records, I can't help but feel that everything has started sounding the same. Too soon to rate, but defnitely love it Another tremendously souful record from Mr Bradley Mixed feelings after the first listen. I didn't really like…”

Poor Charles Bradley has had a real rough year of it this year, but musically he’s still at the top of his game. I’d argue you don’t even have to be a fan of soul to enjoy this, but then I’d also wonder why you aren’t a fan of soul in the first place.

Best track: Ain’t It A Sin. “If you ain’t gonna do me right, I might just do you in” is a killer refrain. His cover of Black Sabbath’s Changes is pretty awesome too.
