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 artists can have several thousand ratings)
This artist is rated in the top 2% of all artists on BestEverAlbums.com. This artist has a Bayesian average rating of 81.4/100, a mean average of 80.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.8/100. The standard deviation for this artist is 15.1.

The first two albums are good, but 22 A Million is the masterpiece. A fantastic artistic reinvention.

One of the more interesting artists of the last 10 years. Creative force.

I get why everyone loves this guy, but I'm just not really into it. I think I have to be in a specific mood to listen to most of his stuff. Otherwise I just get bored. Except for a select few songs. Specifically, Perth. That song is one of my favorite songs of all time. The part about two and a half minutes in is perfect. Overall, interesting music and I will continue to look out for future albums.
Normally I wouldn't want to give an artist such a high score with such a small discography, but I'll make an exception here since both these albums brighten my days so much.
Gets better with every play.
