Skylar Grey Stole The Show This Weekend, Crushing SNL And The AMA's

HAVE A WEEKEND GURRRRRRLLLL. Skylar Grey DOMINATED this random mid-November weekend. First she hopped on SNL with her good friend Eminem to give us “Walk on Water”, “Love the Way You Lie” and “Stan.” I said this while it was going on, but Grey in the background of “Walk on Water” is 1000% better than with Beyonce (Skylar also wrote the song). Like borderline not even close (sorrey to the Bey-Hive). Anyways, my girl Skylar crushed it and it got me thinking of all the bangers she’s been apart of during her career.  The blueprint as a rapper is pretty simple. Write out a song, ask Skylar to sing in the background, and hope she says yes. You know the catchy hook to every rap song with the angel of a voice belting it? Yeah, that’s probably Skylar Grey singing that hook. Look at her track record…

Where’d You Go – Fort Minor

Words I Never Said – Lupe Fiasco

I Need a Doctor – Dre Dre Feat. Eminem

Coming Home – Diddy

Coming Home Part II

C’Mon Let Me Ride – Feat. Eminem (Underrated Banger)

Bed of Lies – Nicki Minaj

Glorious – Macklemore

She also helped write Zedd’s Clarity and Love The Way You Lie – Rihanna and Eminem

Anytime a song comes out with her name involved it’s a must listen plain and simple. Skylar Grey continues to kill the game, and she’s pretty hot in an edgy kind of way with all the tattoos.

P.S. It was also awesome seeing Eminem out there rapping “Stan.” That was a throwback and a half.
