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 artists can have several thousand ratings)

Completely changed the rap game. Run-DMC changed the way the world viewed music. This rating takes into consideration both the quality of their music and the innovation that Run-DMC brought to the music industry. If you like hip-hop, it is your duty to give Run-DMC a listen.

Certainly helped rap and hip hop earn respect among those who never took it seriously. Raising Hell is without a doubt one of the top ten (probably top 5) greatest hip hop albums ever. One of the gold standards in history.

The first real hip-hop superstars. Launched it into the mainstream, and aren't pandering to the pop crowd. Believe it or not, these guys are underrated. On par with Public Enemy.

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 :(
