Summer Walker earned another music industry accolade thanks to her Still Over It album. The Love Renaissance recording artist’s name is now cemented alongside Country/Pop megastar Taylor Swift in the record books.
According to Billboard, Summer Walker became just the second female artist to land 18 songs on the Hot 100 chart in a single week. Taylor Swift also achieved that feat in September 2019 following the release of her Lover album.
Summer Walker’s “No Love” featuring fellow R&B singer SZA was the highest placed Still Over It song this week. The Sonni and ForTheNight-produced collaboration debuted at #13.
Two other tracks also made it into the Hot 100’s Top 40. “Bitter” with Cardi B opened at #25 on the Billboard rankings. The single “Ex for a Reason” with JT from City Girls currently sits at #33.

In addition, Summer Walker helped DMV songstress Ari Lennox score her first career Hot 100 entry. Their “Unloyal” duet landed at #48. The legendary production duo known as The Neptunes earned their second credited Hot 100 entry with “Dat Right There.”
Still Over It broke onto the Billboard 200 album chart at #1 with 166,000 first-week units. Additionally, Summer Walker’s sophomore studio LP set a new record for most one-week streams for an album by a female R&B artist.
The commercial success of Still Over It was bolstered by its performance on Apple Music. Still Over It has the biggest 24-hour debut on Apple Music for a female act and the biggest Apple Music debut for an R&B album in the history of the streaming service.
