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)

Scenario is so much fun. Every MC is firing on all cylinders, highlighted of course by the animated and iconic Busta Rhymes verse. But let’s not forget that Phife and Tip are still here. They give us, respectively, one final verse and they are both spectacular and quotable.
One of the great posse cuts in hip hop and one of the greatest closers too, of any genre. (Edited)
