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 charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 59.0/100, a mean average of 36.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 36.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 18.3.

While 2019 was admittedly not a high-point for music, somehow this list leads us to believe that it was even worse! I am actually fine with seeing Ariana Grande at #1, but Da Baby landing in the top ten is HILARIOUS.
Pop ruins lists nowadays. Underground is where it's at.
super
They put Thank U Next at number 1. They put Igor at number 12. They put Magdalene at number 30. Fear Inoculum, Titanic Rising, and Schlagenheim are completely absent from the list. Need I say more

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
