Walker has regularly been criticized for her laid-back live performances.

Summer Walker fans are undeniably happy to see the R&B starlet in high spirits after hard launching her relationship with Lil Meech on social media. While the two seem to continuously laughing and smiling in each other's company, external forces have been fighting hard to cause a rift between them. Celina Powell's recent antics, such as sharing an alleged video of her and the BMF actor being intimate on OnlyFans, were an apparent attempt to split the new lovers up, but ultimately, Walker proved how much she's grown in recent months by trolling her man rather than getting wrapped up in the internet drama.

On Friday (May 12), the mother of three kept the good vibes going, showing off some of her silliest dance moves as Meech watched on. In one of the clips posted on her Instagram Story, Walker even tagged Chris Brown, suggesting that her choreography could rival his. "You don't want none of this," she joked with her fellow R&B star. Rather than revelling in the happiness Summer chose to share with the world, haters took the opportunity to ask the vocalist why she fails to deliver the same energy on stage. "Doin' all this on IG, but keep hittin' that stage like she paralyzed lips down," one user wrote in @theshaderoom's comments yesterday.

Lil Meech Brings Out Summer Walker's Goofy Side

After catching wind of the hateful comments, Walker took a moment to address them in another IG post, even demonstrating why dancing so freely wouldn't work with her style of music. "I'm tired. If I came out on stage like this to this slow ass music they'd say it's crack," she wrote in her caption. "Like please." With a song of her own blaring in the background, the Still Over It songstress proceeds to mount a chair in front of her, wildly swaying her hips along to prove a point.

"Are y'all catching my drift now?" she asked haters after taking the time to clear them. "It's not adding up right." No matter what critics have to say about her laid-back sets, die-hard fans of Walker are eager to hear her first project since 2021 later this month. During her set at Dreamville Festival a few weeks ago she confirmed that Clear 2: Soft Life will be dropping in the near future, and will likely be a part of many summer playlists as it circulates in the weeks after.
