More than two years after Skylar Grey turned heads with her Grammy performance alongside Eminem and Dr. Dre on "I Need a Doctor," the singer will finally release her debut album, Don't Look Down, on July 9th.

Grey has been anxious to share the album, executive produced by Eminem, since she unveiled the lead single, "C'mon, Let Me Ride," earlier this year. "I just wanted to get music out so that I could start playing shows and promoting the album," Grey tells Rolling Stone.

Though the album won't be out for a few months, she will get to share more music leading up to the release. "I believe in hearing more than one song, because there are so many different sides to the album," she says. "So we came up with a plan, which is putting the album out July 9th, but before that putting out four singles where I do a little video for each one, just to get a lot of music out there."

The first track, "Final Warning," will be available April 16th. It's her favorite song on the album.

"This is the first time in my entire life of making music, when I made this song, where I feel like I finally figured out the way that I wanted to sound and the combination of things," she says. "I wrote the song three years ago, and it's still my favorite. I've written so many songs since then, yet I always go back to this one. It got me going on the whole Skylar Grey project."

Among the other upcoming tracks is "White Suburban," a piano and vocal track. ...

Waiting AGES for this masterpiece

I think sister has potential even though CLMR is TRASH so I will check this out.

They better just stick with this date. I've been thinking, she's better off just not waiting for a single to catch on, because that may never happen on it's own. Release the album, promote the hell out of it, and let "Final Warning" grow on it's own terms as she tours or something.

She's definitely lost the momentum she had in 2011, with all those successful featured singles and what not. I still think she has a solid fanbase ready for an album though.

Thanks to your list I just assembled all my scattered Skylar Grey songs into one album. Let's not forget her features: I Need a Doctor, Our House, Rescue Me too. I wish she had done full acoustic versions of those like she did with Coming Home and Words.

Is she still working mainly with Alex Da Kid on this album?

Sky Ferreira

I think she means 4 new singles, as in C'mon Let Me Ride isn't included.
