The shy, rising star is making a splash on the R&B scene, as is her relationship with the famed producer. Recently, Summer Walker shared that she endured heartbreak, leaving many to speculate that she and London ended their romance. However, it looks as if they've pulled a break-up-to-make-up move and things are copasetic on the home front.

The song is featured on her platinum-selling debut album Over It that dropped almost a year ago. Summer performed with the sunset as her backdrop in a room filled with flowers as her live band accompanied her performance.

The singer also recently took to her Instagram Story to address the public amid criticism, telling people that she's a person just like them, not a "fake ass perfect public figure." She wrote, I really appreciate the genuine love from some of y'all but stop idolizing plp to the point that you start to dehumanize them. its weird."
