[Watch] Skylar Grey - "Invisible" (Official Video)

Skylar Grey offers up the visuals to her slow burning track "Invisible" today and the visuals are pretty dark. The colour tones obviously lead you to a bleak state of mind from the offset with greens and greys dominating the cityscape but I suppose in a way the video gives a little hope. Maybe. A little. Until Skylar bursts into flames and well then what can you do?

Skylar is expected to release an album in 2012 but for now this will have to do for fans. Enjoy.

[Watch] Karmin - "I Need A Doctor" Feat. Skylar Grey (Live for Billboard @Lollapalooza)

Soul Culture points to this interesting take on Eminem and Dr. Dre's hit track "I Need A Doctor" from the youtube sensation that is Karmin. Recorded for Billboard at Lollapalooza, they begin with a variation on the original using a stomp box and acoustic guitar before being joined by Skylar Grey herself midway through the track. The performance is great and it's nice to see that all the artists have a mutual respect for each other, so much so that they'll step in and sing with one another at any given opportunity.

[Listen] Skylar Grey - "Invisible"

Check out the first official single from Skylar Grey's debut album Invinsible (yes that is the correct spelling). The track was debuted minutes ago on Ryan Seacrest's show on Kiis.Fm (as you can tell by the tags), so if you missed out on the show you can still hear the track in the player above. The track was once again produced by Alex Da Kid. The track is alot more radio friendly than the previous buzz track "Dance Without You", it kinda reminds me of a Bruno Mars track so I'm more in favor of the previous than the latter. But let us know what you think of this new track in the comments below.
