This album, though, featured a lot of slow beats making a lot of the songs sound the same. Her first album had a great variety of beats with good samples to go along with it. Regardless, the production on “Still Over It” felt a little boring to me. Despite production credits being given to London, Walker said he had no involvement. For obvious reasons, London wasn’t included on her new album. “Over It” was executive produced by London On Da Track. SZA and Walker on a song together was definitely much needed for the R&B world.Īnother noticeable difference from this album compared to her first was the production. I liked this touch because I feel like having an album about unfaithfulness and heartbreak from the female perspective needed some assistance from women who have made music about those same things, like SZA’s “CTRL” and Cardi B’s “Invasion of Privacy.” SZA’s verse on “No Love” was one of my favorite moments on the album, as she sings about her believing she deserves more from the person she is with. Her debut project only had one female feature, Jhene Aiko.
Something I noticed was how this project included more female features, with help from SZA, Cardi B, JT, Ciara and Ari Lennox. Walker’s new album has a lot of differences from her 2019 debut project. In a message she provided to Apple Music, Walker told fans to use her album as an “ opportunity to learn from my mistakes.” And with the energy she’s directing toward London, she definitely wants people to avoid what she went through. “But why these h**s all in our business? How he don’t care ’bout his children,” sings the Atlanta native. And one thing about Walker, she’s gonna get personal when it comes to her music. We see this in the first song on the 20-track project, “Bitter,” which features narration by Cardi B. “Still Over It” brings listeners a little closer look at Walker and her relationship with the father of her child, producer London On Da Track, which became very messy on social media. After a few years of seeing her featured on different songs like “Secret” with 21 Savageand “ Love Cycle” with Toosii, I was excited to see she was returning with her sophomore studio album.
Her verse was so addicting to me, I would replay it when A Boogie’s part was about to start. When I first heard the song, I was of course excited to hear A Boogie’s verse, but it was Walker who blew me away. Later that year, she released her debut album, “Over It,” which featured a track titled “Stretch You Out,” that had one of my favorite artists, A Boogie – wit da Hoodie. The way she expresses her desire for intimacy and Drake responding to it made me want to keep an eye out on Walker in the future. While I mainly checked the song out because I’m a huge Drake fan, I fell in love with Walker’s voice and the emotion she puts into it. Its assembly line crap filled with struggle bars like " Got so many chains they call me Chaining Tatum" " Why you gotta fight with me at Cheesecake You know I love to go there" and "You toyin with it like happy meal" I mean those are not bars drake should be putting into songs at this stage of his career, these sound like lines a 15 year old would throw into a song, someone get Quentin Miller in the building stat.I remember first hearing about Summer Walker when Drake hopped on the remix to her platinum single, “Girls Need Love” back in the winter of 2019. Overall the album is just so tired and boring half the time on the tracks Drake himself sounds bored and disinterested in what he is spitting. Maybe Drake was doing too much, its weird that his "surprise mixtape" IYRTITL was much more impressive than this much anticipated project. Drake had a lot on his plate in 2015 releasing two albums, and that may be the reason this is an underwhelming studio album. Feels like this was just slapped together and maybe it was. Nothing really stood out to me most of the tracks on here just seemed like filler. First problem is its way too long, this album did not need to be 20 tracks considering a lot of the tracks were repetitive and seemed to run together. I was very excited for this album, there was a lot of hype and build up for it with Drake's beef with Meek Mill and awesome diss track Back to I was very excited for this album, there was a lot of hype and build up for it with Drake's beef with Meek Mill and awesome diss track Back to Back, his surprise mixtape If Your Reading This Its Too Late (which I think is much better than views) and his collab with Future What A Time To Be Alive.
