During her set at J. Cole’s Dreamville Festival in Raleigh, North Carolina, Summer Walker surprised fans with the news that she would be releasing a new project, announcing the news at the tail end of her set on Sunday Night. The CLEAR 2: SOFT LIFE EP is slated to drop on May 19 via LVRN/Interscope Records.
CLEAR 2 will serve as the sequel to 2019’s four-track CLEAR, which preceded the R&B singer’s breakthrough album Over It.
Walker also shared the cover for the EP, an ethereal portrait of her cradling her baby bump sitting in a flower-filled rowboat.
The EP is the first new music fans will be receiving from Walker since last year’s reworked sped-up version of her “Last Day of Summer.” Prior to that, her last full-length project was 2021’s Still Over It.
Summer Walker’s CLEAR 2: SOFT LIFE EP is now available for pre-order now on her website.
