Summer Walker is being transparent with her fans.

Although she wears her heart on her sleeve in her music, she doesn’t want to be that vulnerable in person. As reported on The Jasmine Brand, during a recent concert, Summer told her fans that she wouldn’t be performing all of her songs because they make her emotional. She said,

“I just wanted to talk to ya’ll for a second. For anybody that came here and was like, ‘oh, she didn’t do Reciprocate, she didn’t do Circus, she didn’t do Session 33’ I didn’t do a lot of songs on the new album.” She continued, “I want you to know [that] this sh*t is real. I write a lot of my stuff – I write most of my stuff and you know it’s still a fresh womb. My baby, she not even one yet.” She added,

“I ain’t got time to be up here singing that sh*t crying in front of y’all. So I sing what I could and I hope that ya’ll still enjoyed the show.”
