Skylar Grey DXLIX :: “C’mon Let Me Ride” Interactive Lyrical Analysis by PopDust’s Between The Lines

For any of you who may have been wondering why the first offering from Ms. Grey‘s Don’t Look Down album is a song about bicycles (C’mon Let Me Ride feat. Eminem), PopDust‘s Lindsey Weber has written an interactive overview of the song, breaking down her thoughts on the meaning behind the song’s playfully misleading lyrics.

Read the introduction to the song analysis below, and click the title to access the fully-interactive overview of the satirical lyrics!

Between The Lines – Not Really About a Bicycle | PopDust ::
“….in “Between the Lines,” we geekily analyze the the lyrics of your favorite songs, line by line, and–BEST PART–you get to join in and do the very same! Propose your own interpretation, tell us why we JUST DON’T GET IT, or lead your very own conversation.

An innuendo-drive pop-parody, “C’mon Let Me Ride” is Skylar Grey’s answer to Top 40 radio, it seems. Even the music video has the singer-songwriter mocking bikini-clad groupies and donning trailer park-inspired camouflage. She’s even got Eminem riding a tricked out bike, as he contributes his verse to the song, perhaps a “thank you” to Skyler for penning his smash duet “Love The Way You Lie”. Rihanna sang Grey’s part on that one, Grey’s on her own this time….”

Who’s poised for greatness in 2013?

By Michael Shilling

Special to MSN Music

Every year, a select group of young entertainers capture the attention of the music-listening public. Some have a few records out and some are just buzzing hard in their hometown, but all of them stand a shot at ending the year in the headlines. Here’s our gallery of 2013′s heat-seekers….

Skylar Grey

In 2010, she changed her name to Skylar Grey and has been recording a second album, “Don’t Look Down, for the past few years.

Skylar Grey DXLIV :: PopCrush’s Artist To Watch In 2013

PopCrush has named Ms. Grey one of their Artists To Watch In 2013, with Scott Shetler writing a short sum-up of why she was chosen for their list.

Read his comments below, and click the article’s title to view the piece on PopCrush!

SKYLAR GREY – ARTIST TO WATCH IN 2013 | PopCrush ::
“….it’s odd that a three-time Grammy nominee could still be under the radar, but that’s the case for Skylar Grey, who will finally see the release of her long-delayed album in 2013 after years of songwriting and guest verse contributions for other artists.

Grey’s big break came when she penned the hook for ‘Love the Way You Lie, Eminem‘s duet withRihanna.

That was followed by appearance on the Diddy-Dirty Money track ‘Coming Home, Dr. Dre‘s ‘I Need a Doctor, Lupe Fiasco‘s ‘Words I Never Said’ and Kaskade‘s ‘Room for Happiness.

Grey’s solo music hasn’t lit up the charts, but her upcoming album ‘Don’t Look Down’ will provide an opportunity for a fresh start. The ridiculous (in a good way) first single, ‘C’Mon Let Me Ride, features Eminem singing the hook from Queen‘s ‘Bicycle Race.….”
