DON’T LOOK DOWN – Must-Hear Album | Rolling Stone ::
“….Skylar Grey’s second album Don’t Look Down, out July 9th via KidinaKorner and Interscope, has been a long time coming. In the years since her 2006 debut Like Blood Like Honey, Grey has honed her own material while also co-penning a handful of hit tunes for other artists, like Eminem’s “Love The Way You Lie. So impressed with Grey, Em took the singer under his belt, acting as executive producer on Don’t Look Down and spitting on album cut “C’mon Let Me Ride, a bumping, grin-inducing pop number that that cops Queen’s “Bicycle Race.

New Video: Skylar Grey | VIBE ::
“….love and family don’t always mix. When relationships become inappropriate and lines get crossed, there’s no telling what the outcome may be. In Skylar Grey’s “Final Warning” video, she comes clean only to be put through a near life ending ordeal. Watch closely….”

VIDEO | Dropout UK ::
“….Grey is back with her brand new song ‘Final Warning’ and it’s amazing… but hey it’s Skylar, what did you expect?! The writer of ‘Love The Way You Lie’ has only gone and written another emotive and thrilling balled ‘Final Warning’….and it’s shocking to say the least.

With Eminem as executive producer of her new album, ‘Don’t Look Down’, I think it’s safe to say we all need a copy of that when it drops on July 9th….”
