On May 22, Skylar Grey released her latest album, WASTED POTENTIAL. Across 12 tracks, Grey revisits her childhood in rural Wisconsin. Some songs are sad, some are sweet and nostalgic.
Throughout her two-decade career, she’s often supported other artists. Her hooks have anchored hits like Fort Minor’s “Where’d You Go” (as Holly Brook), Macklemore’s “Glorious,” “Bed of Lies” by Nicki Minaj, and numerous Eminem singles. Wasted Potential shifts the focus on herself–the voice behind the those big songs.
In this episode of How Music is Made, Jordan Edwards talks to Grey about recording the new album, her greatest hits, and her life on a farm in Northern California.
