Summer’s Last Project: 2021 Still Over It

The 20-track album was surrounded by loads of drama, but was Walker’s heartbreak masterpiece.

Opening with support from New York rapper Cardi B on Bitter to the album’s closing with Ciara’s Prayer.

Her sophomore album was No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

The No Love singer made history with the 2021 LP during its first week with over 201 million streams.

Leading to Still Over It breaking the record of the largest streaming week for an R&B album by a female artist.

Dreamville Festival This Past Weekend

Legendary rappers J.Cole and Drake co-headlined the music festival in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Special appearances included artists such as Summer Walker, Glorilla, Lil Uzi Vert, Usher and Lil Wayne.

The festival came with tons of memorable moments like Usher playing a cruel April Fool’s Prank.

The R&B legend joked that Mrs. Carter would be joining him on stage and his audience waited in anticipation as well as excitement.

Then charmingly said, “April fools” to his audience. It was a cute moment from the Good Kisser singer.

Reminiscing, she adds,  Who was this beautiful little girl with this bass? I was in love from day one. Her music was just incredible. So standing ovation and much, much, much love to her.” She continues to add, “And I always wanted to work with her. And this was the opportunity.”

What’s new?” She explains that artists must keep up to date with the youth as they can help the older generation as well.

Walker’s sophomore album is very smooth, sultry and talks about toxic relationships and also new beginnings.

For most of Summer’s fans, Still Over It “just hits different.” They took to social media to congratulate the singer on her success. Her album is definitely living up to the hype. Earlier in the week, Destiny Child’s Kelly Rowland showed the singer some love in an Instagram post where she doted on one of the songs from Walker’s album. The 25-year-old songbird once shared that she used to be an exotic dancer at night who cleaned homes during the day. When she wasn’t cleaning or dancing, she would post videos of herself to Youtube performing covers. “I started singing because I wanted to make money in a comfortable and creative way.” Walker, influenced by soul singers Jazmine Sullivan and the late Amy Winehouse, has come a long way. We congratulate her on her success.

Summer Walker’s “Ex For A Reason” Gets Mixed Reactions

The crowd is torn. Summer Walker’s new single “Ex For A Reason,” featuring JT of City Girls fame, has met with mixed reactions from fans. Those same fans hadn’t heard from Walker for over a year, with her last release being the 2020 EP Life on Earth.

However, earlier this month, the trailer for her new album Still Over It debuted on YouTube. Summer Walker stans raised a glass and then met this latest single. The “Ex For A Reason” is the first taste of what we can expect from Still Over It. Unfortunately, some reviewers are already ‘over it.’

A fall for Summer Walker?

The track, at least on paper, has everything it needs to succeed. Producers on the song include the likes of Buddah Bless and Sean Garrett. Bless has blessed numerous hit singles for artists like 2 Chainz, Youngboy NBA, and the Travis Scott-led JackBoys. Garrett also boasts a massively successful musical arsenal. He has produced and composed for Britney Spears, Mario, a very early Nicki Minaj, Ciara, and more. He is also a co-writer on Usher’s galaxy-sized hit “Yeah!”. Joining the fray is JT, one half of the rap duo City Girls. Coming off of the 2020 success of City on Lock, JT seems a good, powerful addition to Walker’s lead-off single.

And then, of course, there’s Summer Walker. What do you say about someone who goes Platinum with their debut album and then shatters the record for biggest streaming-week debut for a female R&B singer? You have high expectations, of course. While the Twitter-verse indeed expects the best, they must also run a stockyard because they’ve got plenty of beef, too.

Some expressed mild disappointment:

Others were a little more…forward.

Still others expressed that rarest of Twitter traits: positivity and gratitude.

Summer Walker Drops Trailer for Latest Project

Summer Walker’s trailer for Still Over It came out, and fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Last week the hip hop recording artist and new mom finally announced the highly anticipated release of her latest project.

But while Walker has had enough and is undeniably Still Over It, her fans are far from over her.  In fact, her fans can’t get enough. But who can blame them? Walker has more than earned her fandom. 

Summer Walker’s journey 

According to an artist biography, Walker’s discovery was like something out of a fairy tale. In a moment of fate or luck, everything came together. A source indicates that a studio manager discovered the artist accidentally stumbling upon her work while conducting a self-search. But while it was fate that led to her discovery, it was Walker’s impressive body of work that landed her a 2018 contract with Interscope. And the rest is history. 

Summer Walker’s fandom

Since her discovery, Walker has proven that she has the “it” factor. Not more than a year after her debut, Walker released her first album, Over It. The album was an outstanding success. According to allmusic.com, Over It was so well received that it rose straight up the charts. The album came in impressively at number two on the Billboard 200. Still, the fans could not get enough. As hotnewhiphop notes, “fans didn’t waste a moment before pleading for  her sophomore album.“

Cluing them in

Last week Walker gave her fans all the clues they needed. On October fourth social media was jumping after the release of  Summer Walker’s new trailer hinting at the release of Still Over It. But there were more exciting tidbits to follow. Walker once again turned up the hype with additional details about the project.  On October 12, Walker addressed the public via Twitter with the mention of  another project single, “Ex for a Reason.” And the single features JT. 

Something Special

From the new trailer, it seems that fans are in for something special.  According to the artist, Still Over isn’t just your ordinary album; it is a story. And everyone loves a good story, especially one with an unforgettable conclusion? And according to hotnewhiphop, Walker has that covered too. In addition, the last single of the album will reportedly include a special feature by Ciara for an extra delight. 

Despite all that is going on in Walker’s life, she has worked on releasing quite a project. And for fans who can’t contain their excitement much longer, the wait will soon be over. According to sources, the 20-track album will drop on November 1. But for those looking for a taste, “Ex for a Reason” is set to drop this Friday, October 15.
