Summer Walker’s Professional Career, Youtube, Instagram & Twitter
Summer Walker was fairly unknown until she dropped her first album on October 19, 2018 titled “Last day of Summer” which was produced by Arsenio Archer which includes her hit songs like Karma, CPR and Girls Need Love.
Summer is signed with LVRN, the Atlanta-based, Interscope-affiliated organization that includes other top artists like 6LACK and Dram. She’s considered as one of the label’s breakout stars.
She went on a tour with Grammy-nominated star 6LACK in fall of 2018, but could not complete the tour as she had some problems with her vocal cord and she posted this a message to all her fans.
I won’t lie, I’ve been trying to go out there every night on this tour and kill it for y’all but the doctors and my team are advising me to stop before I damage my vocal chords. I’m so sorry I have to remove myself from the rest of the tour but I promise I will come back next year more prepared and ready to kill it for y’all. Thank you 6LACK and the rest of the team for having me apart of the show. y’all keep killing.
Its amazing how she is an introvert who finds it hard to express her feelings but when she gets on the stage, she can perform in front of so many people as made evident by her in her Beat1 Interview.
It’s so fucking weird when I get on stage, I don’t be nervous at all. It don’t make no sense. I be scared as hell all day. Then when I get on [stage], I just be like, ‘Alright, well, I’m here so.’ Except for when I have to talk, I don’t like to talk [on stage].
She does not listen to her own music once it is recorded.
“I don’t listen to the music after it comes out. I know a lot of people don’t. After I make it, I don’t want to hear it no more. Just gotta get it out. I’ve cried in the studio.” she further adds on her Beats interview.
Currently, Summer Walker has a massive following in all her social media accounts.

People got her confused with DJ Drama’s ex-wife who also goes by the same name and she was 34 years old at the time. Then popular sites like Genius got her mixed up with DJ Drama’s ex-wife and reported her age as 34 as well which resulted in many sites claiming her to be 34 years old. However, Summer herself has on multiple occasions tweeted that her age is in fact only 22.
