SUMMER WALKER RIDES SOUL TRAIN WIN

Despite being ignored by the Recording Academy for Grammy noms, Summer Walker will have at least one trophy to put on her mantel this year: The 2020 BET Soul Train Award for Album of the Year.

Last year’s winner for Best New Artist, Walker won the award for her full-length LVRN/Interscope debut, Over It. Chris Brown, with four awards, was the big winner of the night; H.E.R. received two.
