12.7.12 - New Music - Skylar Grey and Eminem
Skylar Grey is a name that has been popping up and down for several years now. She wrote Eminem and Rihanna’s “Love The Way You Lie” and she was then featured on Diddy-Dirty Money’s “Coming Home” and Dr. Dre & Eminem’s “I Need A Doctor”, both of which were top ten hits in the US. So, as things go for an up-and-coming artist, she ain’t doin’ too baddd.
She has an album (under the name Skylar Grey – she put one out years ago under the moniker Holly Brook) coming out in the first quarter of 2013, and she’s really trying to make this one happen. First single “Invisible” didn’t do much, so now she’s got a new song. The song is fairly in your face with its sexy lyrics, but somehow it isn’t offensive. The whole thing feels rather playful and lighthearted. Will the song do well on the charts? Maybe not, but don’t count this song – and especially not her – out. Grey is a fantastic songwriter, and she’s got powerful friends. |
