It’s Summer Walker‘s season, that’s for sure.
The R&B newcomer, whose debut album ‘Over It’ (released October 4) is reportedly set to leap over Post Malone and Da Baby‘s sales to capture the top of the Billboard 200 next week (click here to read more about that), is keeping the momentum going by releasing a video to the LP’s cut, ‘Playing Games.’
A fan favorite from the star-studded project, ‘Games’ – which features Bryson Tiller – comes as a sultry, slow jam that hears its performers trade verses on a love gone awry. Featuring lyrical interpolations of Destiny’s Child‘s 2000 hit, ‘Say My Name,’ the song’s Christine Yuan-directed accompanying music video was delivered moments ago.

I cannot get into Summer Walker or Bryson. But I hope they find success. We need more artists of color in the upper echelon of the charts.
I think Bryson’s vocals are lackluster, but I like his music. Do you like Khalid? I feel like he sings like his mouth is sewn shut.
Khalid has good music but I can only handle his voice in small increments. Sometimes I think he’d be better as a producer, because his voice is annoying AF. Kinda like Miguel – I hate his voice, but I love when he produces for other people.
This is a song to have on in the background, nothing I’d be screaming to play. It’s certainly not “a The Weekend”. I wish she’d do more with her low notes.
BYE BRYSON! Why do you sound more autotuned than Chris Brown? Had to track forward.
Lmao! In the background? Lol.
When are we gonna move on from this sound? I can hardly understand what Summer is “singing” half the time. SZA’s power…
Nothing special to see or hear here….carryon
summer walker honestly deserves the attention, she writes and clearly does an amazing job of it, and her voice is very very dope and original. anybody saying they cant understand what she’s saying needs to learn to start conversing with different people from different places because clearly that’s an issue with your listening, not her problem. shes is from atl so some things she says may go over yall’s heads, but don’t play with her tho. solid video for a sold song from a solid album. keep sza outta these comment because they are on two completely two dif artists
I love this album so much, it’s fire ?
anyone who doesn’t is clearly dumb or don’t like real r&b
I honestly am starting to get into Summer Walker. Everything I’ve heard so far is solid. I really am enjoying the samples from the 90s and 00s she’s doing. Her song with Usher is a hit! And she has beautiful brown skin! We so rarely see women of color who are brown or darker complexion make waves in the charts anymore. They have to be light skin or mixed. It’s nice to see and hear summer. Now I see why we are truly canceling Sabrina Claudio and embracing Summer.
