• Still Over It, Summer Walker's second album released in 2021, intimately delves into the tumultuous and complex relationship she shared with Atlanta producer London On Da Track spanning the periods before, during, and after her pregnancy. Since then, the singer-songwriter has joyfully welcomed a set of twins. This transformation has ushered her into the era of the "soft life," characterized by a departure from struggle and stress and a dedicated focus on joy and self-care.
  
  Reflecting these ideals and themes, Walker released her Clear 2: Soft Life EP, building upon her previous Clear series debut in 2019. Her happier state of being inspired a shift towards more positive and uplifting music. "The first one was kinda sad - all my music is sad - but I'm in a different space, so this one is more happy," she told Apple Music. "It's a continuation in the sense of the music because it's all live."
  
  "To Summer, From Cole (Audio Hug)" is the opening track for Clear 2: Soft Life, setting the tone for Walker's newfound contentment and the vibrant chapters of her life.
