| Skylar Grey Band: Artist 2011 Grammy Winner |
| Skylar Grey is the type of solo artist everyone wishes to be. An accomplished vocalist, musician and lyricist. Her music is 100 percent, heart, soul and emotion. She lives for the music and the performance, not the monetary gain. As with all artists in her category, the road upwards is filled with road blocks and hardships. None of which has deterred her love of the music and the life that goes with it. Hard times are shrugged off and the show goes on without so much as a whimper. Skylar's vocals are as smooth as liquid silk which she blends with sweet honey like instrumentals. Easily understood lyrics which meld into the mood in which they were written. This lady started out early in life defining her musical career with the help and coaching of an equally talented mother (Candace). The two of them generated a consortium of very nice tracks in their own right. We fully expect to see this lady fulfill the destiny that was meant to be. She helped write sections of all three versions of "Love the Way You Lie" by Eminem and Rihanna and is a featured guest on "I Need A Doctor" which she sang the chorus for Dr. Dre and Eminem. She also co-wrote "Coming Home" with Jay-Z and J.Cole which is a single on the Last Train to Paris album by Diddy-Dirty Money, along with writing "Castle Walls" by T.I. and Christina Aguilera, which is a single on T.I.'s No Mercy album. Grey earned a Grammy nomination for Song of the Year for her writing contributions to "Love the Way You Lie". Producer Alex Da Kid has signed her to a production deal on his Wonderland Music imprint. Grey will also be featured on Lupe Fiasco's third studio album Lasers. Grey is featured on the second single "Words I Never Said". |
