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 albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

I do love this album. But just can't believe it's nearly 20 years old. Got some classic Nas tracks. You can't go wrong with someone like Nas going over the top of Apache.

Love this album. I actually love "I Can". It's one of the main reasons why I love Nas. He takes those risks that can make him seem corny to some, but you can't deny that it comes from a good place. From the choice of words and delivery you can tell he wrote that song for kids. I was 5th grade when I first heard that song, and I loved it. Still do because of the nostalgia

While this is a great album, I find that I Can grates after awhile...

Everything Nas does gets unfairly compared to Illmatic. Everyone knows this. It shouldn't impair your enjoyment of what is a truly great album.
