Who is ‘Walmart Summit’?

The internet has gone wild over a text encounter between John Summit and a fan now labeled as ‘Walmart Summit’.

John Summit has always kept it real on social media, whether about his DJ career or other hot takes. Recently, one particular fan has found himself at the center of some unwanted attention in a subtle flex gone sideways.  While respecting his privacy, Exron is here to give you an objective overview of how Walmart Summit got his name.

It all started when a fan sent John Summit a selfie from Vegas shouting out the “Where You Are” mastermind.  In his text, he thanks the Experts Only boss for getting him laid “because [he] looked like a Walmart version of [Summit]”.  Summit has always made an effort to engage with fans on social media, and thus responded lightheartedly congratulating him in an Instagram story.

Shortly thereafter, John Summit posted a slew of subsequent texts from the man pleading with him to remove the story from socials because he allegedly had a girlfriend.  In an attempt to soften the blow, Summit posted a Tweet to extend an olive branch.  Specifically, he lightheartedly offered the man “list to any upcoming shows and… [to] put in a good word” for future prospects. Naturally, Twitter followers chimed in with comments expressing a range of reactions to the situation.

Particularly, one user noted that John Summit should not be praising such behavior publicly through this gesture.  John Summit proceeded to explain the context behind this move on Twitter, noting that he doesn’t “condone cheating ever, [and is] personally scarred from it”.  Reinforcing his message, he noted that he has never cheated and would rather remain single than do so.

Ultimately, it is both unclear whether Walmart Summit was single and merely did it for “the bit”.  Nonetheless, this serves as a cautionary tale to those thinking about oversharing in the age of viral social media.  To stay clued in on the real John Summit, head over to his Instagram.
