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 91.1/100, a mean average of 89.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.3/100. The standard deviation for this track is 13.9.

My favorite Kendrick song. The lyricism and groove on this one are simply unreal.

The 15 second section between 3:20 and 3:35 is among my favorite musical moments. It's just an electric keyboard solo over this wobbly sounding organ sound then a Saxophone comes in over the top and plays the most absolutely gorgeous 10 notes I've ever heard. Those moments are so incredible that are just everywhere on TPAB that take dozens of listens to uncover.
The sax riff is explored a little farther. A few variations are heard over the last verse and the during the outro and it's so freaking great.
Favourite song of the album
Sabrosa y perfecta.

Possibly my favorite track on one of the best albums ever released. Everything about it from Kendrick's narrative lyricism to the production is impeccable.

Absolutely ingenious. The sexy feel of the track is really just a facade, for when the third verse finishes and the song concludes itself, we get a picture of revenge for the death of a friend. One of the most creative songs I have ever heard.
The hook on this song is so tasty

I have a weird addiction to the hook. Production is phenomenal as well.
smooth and sexy

The unexpected great track from the album, stylistically different from the rest of the record
