It’s for the girls and by the girls on Summer Walker‘s forthcoming project. The singer announced on Monday (Oct. 16) that she has a new EP titled Girls Need Love (Girls Mix) releasing on Friday (Oct. 20).
The EP serves as an extension of her 2018 track titled “Girls Need Love.” The song — which received its first remix with Drake — peaked at No. 37 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100, and spent a total of 20 weeks on the tally; on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, the track hit No. 16. Girls Need Love (Girls Mix) will feature three remixes of the track featuring Victoria Monét, Tyla and Tink. The original solo version of “Girls Need Love,” as well as an acoustic version of the track released on Monday, will also be included on the EP.
“Girls Need Love (Girls Mix) 10/20,” Walker tweeted on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the project’s album cover — a March 4, 2019, tweet of her asking fans to “text ur man ‘I just need some d–k with no complications’ and tweet me his reply lol” with a parental advisory sign and the set of new collaborators.
“Girls Need Love” served as the breakout single from Walker mixtape Last Days of Summer. The set, released on Oct. 19, 2018, peaked at No. 44 on the Billboard 200 and spent 35 weeks on the chart. Girls Need Love (Girls Mix) comes amid the mixtape’s fifth anniversary.
