The name Skylar Grey might not be instantly recognisable, but you'll definitely know the songs she's co-written: "Love The Way You Lie" by Eminem, "Clarity" by Zedd, "I Need A Doctor" by Dr. Dre and "Last One Standing" from the Venom: Let There Be Carnage soundtrack are just some of her hits.

Skylar sung the chorus hook on "Glorious" by Macklemore and "Coming Home" by Diddy; she's a long-time collaborator with Eminem, as a performer, songwriter and producer; and she is also a solo artist in her own right.

In fact from the moment she started performing as a kid, being the main artist was Skylar's goal. But as you're about to find out there have been many detours along the way, with both incredible highs and soul crushing lows.

It was during one of those lows that Skylar wrote, performed and produced her new self-titled solo album.

We talk about it all in this interview.
