**💭 Thoughts:** The jazz and soul influences on this record are wonderful. The highlights of this record to me are definitely the production and lyricism. For a record only a decade old, it’s crazy that you can immediately tell this is a classic. Undoubtedly one of the best albums of the 2010s. **🎶 Tracklist Review** 1.) Wesley’s Theory 🔵 2.) For Free?
