OPINION: New Summer Walker album a terrific final chapter

December 13, 2025 by The Varsity News

Summer Walker has done it again. With her latest album, “Finally Over It,” released in Nov. 2025, the R&B singer closes the emotional masterpiece that began with “Over It” in 2019 and continued with “Still Over It” in 2021. As in its name, this record feels like a long-awaited era. Basically, a declaration that she has moved on, grown and reclaimed herself.  

From the very first track it’s clear that Summer is in a different space than before. Gone is the constant heartbreak that defined her earlier albums, replaced with a smoother and healed version. “Finally Over It” kind of gets into a ’90s and early 2000s R&B type of vibe, with different production touches. This really shows her growth as a confident artist willing to take risks, even if it means sacrificing some of the vulnerability that once made her music so connecting for listeners. In my opinion Summer Walker has gone 3-for-3 with the “Over It” series. All three albums are just so good in their own ways. 

One of the album’s strongest qualities is its range. She split the album up in half with “Disc 1” and “Disc 2.. Walker brings in a mix of guest artists such as Chris Brown, Latto, 21 Savage, Brent Faiyaz, Mariah the Scientist and many more. Which really gave her album the sense of the “I’m actually over it this time” narrative. In tracks like “Stitch Me Up” and “1-800 Heartbreak” you can feel the emotion; it shows the vulnerability of heartbreak while still showing resilience. On the other hand, songs like “Go Girl,” really gives it that empowerment and independence, proving that she is not just closing a chapter on past relationships, she’s defining herself on her own terms. It gives THAT GIRL! 

Initially, before I listened to it, I didn’t like that it had so many features. I felt like it would take away from her own personal story. I was wrong! Most of them really fit into the style of the album and go really well. This album is less about the drama and more about the healed version of herself. The album has made a name, debuting at No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and being one of the biggest R&B releases of the year. I know that I have been waiting for her to come out with this album for a while now. It’s finally here and I am not disappointed at all. I’ve listened to the full album about five or more times since it was released. 

In the end, “Finally Over It” is a new beginning. Summer Walker may have started the trilogy in heartbreak, but she ends it with empowerment and a healed clear voice. Whether you’ve followed her journey from the beginning or are just tuning in now, this album offers a soundtrack for anyone learning to move on, embrace growth, and finally, let go.
