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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)
This track is rated in the top 1% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 90.4/100, a mean average of 88.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 90.6/100. The standard deviation for this track is 15.6.

Every time I hear this song I feel like I'm ascending to heaven. One of the best hip-hop songs ever and a defining statement for perhaps the greatest hip-hop artist of all time.

No, you can't get a higher (better) opening track.

The choir (would you call them that?) always gives me chills. When I play this track, there is always a rush I feel as I prepare myself for another listen on this incredible album.
