Skylar Grey – Love the Way You Lie [Original]

With her hand in some of 2010′s biggest records (writing Eminem and Rihanna’s Love the Way You Lie and singing the hook on Dr. Dre and Eminem’s I Need a Doctor), the artist formerly known as Holly Brook (Like Blood Like Honey, Fort Minor’s Where’d You Go) revealed to PopEater that she originally wrote this record for herself, before Rihanna decided to take it. After listening to this, which do y’all prefer?

  1. Download that new LUPE track, It’s the best Skylar Grey joint

  2. way to subtly leave out wins lol…props

  3. Shake you should take the advice of the first post. And then go further on that advice and POST THE NEW LUPE. 2011 is the year of new beginnings.

  4. Lupe just put out a song of the decade and you won’t post THAT SINGLE SONG over some pathetic grudges?

    Not only that but you post rihanna? and other bs?

    but not the song of the decade?

    Shake. You are a faggot.

    P.S.: i now it is your site, which further proves your support for rihanna-like gibberish over some politically charged hip-hop. further proves that you are a faggot.

    P.S.S.: I’m done commenting on this site

  5. this girl is fire I can’t believe that she didnt keep all these tracks even though they probably wouldnt be as big
    she must have made big money though!!

  6. this version is so much better

  7. This version is better, cuz it feels much realer. she kinda sounds like Taylor Swift on this.

    and I wonder why Skylar Grey all of a sudden popped up on this blog today….

  8. just gloss over the fact that she is a part of WINS…what a retard shake is. bitch made.

  9. She def should have kept this for her own album…I’m sure she got paid something stupid though, so she still wins.

  10. Goosebumps, this has much more feeling than in the Rihanna version plus she can sing like a motherfucker.

  11. Goosebumps, this has much more feeling than in the Rihanna version plus she can sing like a motherfucker.
    I hope she got paid well for this one.

  12. What kind of stupid fuckin question is that?

    Why would you decide between 2 Songs that are completely different, minus the hook?

    Thats like askin if you perfer a Snickers or Lasagne..

    And Shake you nedd quit this stupid Boykott of Lupe and keep your personal feelings out of it. Its Irresponsible and flat out unfair for your followers, who mostly do have a great taste of Hip-Hop…I’m sure about 80% of the frequent Site visitors are Lupe fans as well

    Don’t get me wrong, I love the site and most of the time agree with Shake’s and Meka’s comments, but if you could just jump over your shaddow and leave that childish shit behind, it would make the site THAT much better..

  13. oh yea, this song is dope

  14. What’s up with comments not showing and then you do it again and there the old one is?
    A (2)Dope Server Upgrade wouldn’t hurt I think, the site is always lagging at prime time these days.

  15. It’s kinda sad really.. we all know 2dopeboyz makes money off people downloading these songs they put up on usershare, hulkshare, etc.

    So basically, Shake finds not posting Lupe songs more important than money.. LAME

  16. Man, I would go platinum with that song. Just fix my voice a bit in the studio.

  17. lol @ this post… So unnecessary. It’s like u subliminally trying to make up 4 not posting Lupe.

  18. Better by far.

  19. yep! this version is SO much better

  20. Is this the same girl that was singing @ the home and home concerts wit him?

  21. So wait. Is this a chicken/egg thing? This song was written, given to Rihanna, sampled for Recovery’s Love the Way You Lie, then reincarnated as part 2 in its original form with a Marshall verse added at the end for Rihanna’s album?

    My head hurts.

  22. I really don’t know who to choose, Rihanna did her thing on it but Skylar had more pain in her voice.

  23. Way better then Rhianna … as someone who’s heard very little from either artist, I prefer this version, and throw he in with Em’s track and she would likely be in a better position for herself rather than Rhianna taking the track. I was impressed, and from “I Need A Doctor” too, which I heard this morning for the first time (I usually don’t listen to single tracks).

  24.

  25. Smh, SOOOO you post a subliminal shot @ Lupe, for the squabble or childish situation you had with the artist. It’s mildly funny how you say artists should put their differences aside but YOU can’t do the same, smh. It’s called, hypocrisy, and if you can’t let bygones be bygones it’s called growth. And YOU have to grow up some day Shake, for real!

    “Words I Never Said”, by Lupe Fiasco LOOK IT UP!!! YOUTUBE IT!!! IT’S FIRE!!!

  26. This is beautiful no homo

  27. I think this one sounds more natural & shit

  28. Typical Shake post.

  29. Shake, your sucha fucken pussy! LUPE = GREATEST OF ALL TIME

  30. i’d pound that pussy

  31. FTWINS /b/ checkin in

  32. LOVE your blog SHAKE….and i appreciate what you put out for the most part…BUT i just need Lupe in my life…you got a TOP blog here…but i just hate being late on LUPE even though he may have said what he said or did what he did when the rumor was spread about what happened when you wanted an interview….its none of my business…but the world needs more lupe in it…thats all im sayin….but either way keep up the good work Shake….im not on homeboy’s dick…i just appreciate this blog for its eas of use and FREE music…its not like any of us are paying for it

  33. WORDS I NEVER SAID.

  34. Wait wait wait LMFAO! That Lupe STAN “1″ said that asking if we like this song or Rihanna’s version is like asking if you like SNICKERS or LASAGNE?! nigga what the FUCK!? that was the WORST and most pathetic attempt at trying to be funny and smart and insightful all at once. Maybe you mean if you like Turkey burgers or Hamburgers or something but…..snickers? you’re a dumb ass bitch. just like most of Lupe’s followers. nigga if you already knew it wouldn’t be on this site why are you ON HERE LOOKING FOR IT. GO TO LUPES BLOG OR SOME SHIT DAMN STFU hahahhahahhahahahhah……still can’t believe he said snickers. gtfo middle schoolers.

  35. * COSIGN and u gotta admit Words I Never Said is fire…

  36. wait, she’s Holly Brook?!?! #blownaway

    Looking forward to more of her now

  37. (sniff, sniff) i got sumthin in my eye

  38. whats the fuss about lupe not being on this site?who gives a fuck?if you know the song is out there then go find it on another site.why do you wanna see it on 2dopeboyz?or do you just want another reason to bitch at shake & meka?

  39. No reference to Lupe, surprise surprise…

  40. ^ the fuss is about Shake getting butthurt over something Lupe said about him.

  41. The only Lupe I could give a fuck for is Lupe the Pornstar. PERIOD.

  42. frankly i could care less about the squabble b/w shake and lupe…I go to other sites to find lu’s music and i still find a few gems on 2dopeboyz…MY ONLY thing here is that…WHY THE HELL would you post a skylar grey track on the day lupe drops a track featuring her?…had you posted this a while ago or not in close proximity to lupe dropping a trackk with her…well then thats different…oh well…just curious thats all…WINS is dope and lupe is dope and skylar is dope

  43. shake is a baby-backed bitch.
    Lupe is a burgeoning legend.
    I had NO idea she was holly brook. #mindfuck
    This is so much better than Rhianna’s version.

    That is all.

  44. this thread is classic.

  45. Rihanna just sounds annoying, thats why I dont like Run This Town as much as I could. derp

  46. “WHY THE HELL would you post a skylar grey track on the day lupe drops a track featuring her?”

    umm.. because that’s when this song was released? smh.

  47. i knew shake was a /b/tard…lmao
    +1000 internets to you shake hahaha

  48. Hey Skylar Grey is featured in that new Lupe track that came out today also. She’s pretty talented. It’s funny I haven’t seen the Lupe post.

  49. @Shake Will you ever get over this Lupe thing?

  50. @AnDuSaycHiCiTy You havent seen it cuz Shake is still “beefin” with Lupe and will never post another Lupe track on here ever again

  51. She’s Going To Be A STAR Book It!

    And yo Fuck It If Shake Dnt Pose Lupe, Hell Ima HUGEEEEE Lupe Fan But iCan Get His Shit From Anotha Site Or Jus Buy The Song Off iTunes So Chill With That Shit. Not Taking Up For Em But Im Sick Of Niggas Bitchin If It Aint On Here You Already Have It Anyway From Anotha Site So Whats The Big Difference??

  52. LUPE!!! New song is so fucking awesome

  53. Lupe does his thang and shake posts this.

  54. Niggas are not obligated to post Lupe’s music. So stop bitching. There are at least a hundred other sites that do post Lupe. So go to one of them. We don’t need in every single post for Lupe to be mentioned, especially when most of you know why Shake has not posted the damn song. Get over it.

  55. shake is a baby-backed bitch.

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  56. STFU ABOUT LUPE. YOU WANT LUPE GO TO ANOTHER SITE. HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU FEEL WHEN SOMEONE APPROACH YOU ON SOME BS THAT YOU DIDN’T DO. I WOULDNT HELP PROMOTE HIS NUT ASS EITHER.
    -
    And if you follow some of my comments I do disagree with Shake and whomever post on this blog. But you people are a bunch of fucking dumb fucks. This man gives you musics to download and Lupe does jack shit for you and youre all over Lupe’s dick. Faggots.

  57. ^
    This man gives us “musics” to download? And Lupe does jack shit? I mean, I appreciate Shake & Meka for compiling the music for us in a pretty format but in no way is that doing more than actually MAKING a song.

    The issue with not posting Lupe is that people don’t want to go to 4 different blogs to get music, it’s nice having one particular blog to go to. 2dopeboyz is pretty much a great site to get most of your hip-hop/rap fix, but leaving out Lupe over a squabble is starting to get ridiculous.

  58. ^you act as though you have to travel across town to get the song. It’s literally the click of a mouse and you’ll see 100′s of links to the song. I don’t understand how Lupe fans who visit this site haven’t just gotten over the fact that Shake is NOT going to post Lupe songs. Period. Whether we find the reasons behind that dumb or not, it’s his site, it’s his decision.

  59. @Shake nigga please

  60. LUPE IS A BEAST! Words I never said. Yeah I’ve been in a situation where a rapper I was supposed to be doing business with shafted me and disrespected me. I can understand where Shake is coming from in not wanting to post things on someone they have a personal issue with. But… for the greater good. for the greater good.

    SHAKE DO THE RIGHT THING. YOU HEAR THE MESSAGE IN LUPE’S MUSIC. DON’T LET PERSONAL ISSUES CLOUD YOUR JUDGEMENT AS TO WHAT YOU PROMOTE. WORDS I NEVER MOST MEANINGFUL TRACK OF 2011 SO FAR.

  61. you fanboys act as if this is the only place you can listen to the lupe song. why is it such a big deal for you to dickride him on this site specifically? why do yall care that much that you have to jock him publicly… you’ve heard the song, you know it, we know it… so why are you still bitching that its not on this site? Grow the fuck up

  62. SO I love this site and constantly check up. I for one already heard the new Lupe song on Killerhiphop. But I don’t understand what the big beef is with this site and Lupe? Does Shake have something against him?

    Also I really enjoyed this song much more than Rihanna’s version. I was really surprised to learn that Skylar Grey is Holly Brook from Fort Minor’s Where’d you Go. She has a great voice, too bad she didn’t put this out as her song.

  63. Y’all are dumb as FUCK. Don’t fucking complain over shake & meka not posting certain artists. Those songs are easily obtainable from ANY other website, fucktards. And in all honesty, this site is the property of SHAKE AND MEKA’S they have every right to post whatever they want, and have complete control over what does not go on this site.

  64. what about her song with Lupe???? I swear 2DBZ be on some bullshit you say support good (hiphop) music but when lupe puts out anything you guys give it the cold shoulder wtf is wrong with ya’ll get over it and support good music damn.

    but this girl has talent and hopefully she’ll get her chance to shine

  65. shit this is fun

  66. LMAO…people writing essays here???
    u DO KNOW the reason he posted this sklar track instead of the lupe track today was so he could have pages of comments to read abt him , the reason hes not posting any tracks from his is pure ego thing, the reason u people are writing this shit is that his ego can grow even more, he must be refreshing this page loving it.

  67. This site’s validity is in question. the fact that you won’t post one of the most talented MCs music is repugnant. Get over yourself. If you love HipHop you would post Lupe’s music regardless of your personal beef. It’s childish… Especially considering all the wack artists and music that get play here.

    I used to love 2DB. i’m over it.

  70. Thanks for posting!! This is Nice! She can sing, it would be sweet if a remix came out with Marshall on it.

  71. @Hakeem, it’s one artists dude. Relax and get off your soapbox.

  72. Skylar Grey can really sing, em fails for not having her on love the way you lie in the 1st place. Also shake, would’ve of killed you to mention words i never said just on the count that shes on it?? just sayin…

  73. lol @ u ppl thinkin Shake cares…

  74. fuck you shake.

  75. lol, Its so funny how these kids are still crying over Shake not posting Lupe songs anymore. I guess they don’t have the sense in going to a different blog that post his shit.

    kids these days…

  76. Shake is being a little girl about the situation. He got physically assaulted by Lupe because he stanned so hard.

  77. you act as though you have to travel across town to get the song. It’s literally the click of a mouse and you’ll see 100’s of links to the song.

    WELL SAID !!!

  78. How many people are actually going to keep this song and not admit it

  79. woahzzzz
    Can we please get a studio Eminem & Skylar version plz.

  80. heard like 2 seconds and this joint is already than rihanna’s version

  81. lupe is a douche.

  82. So does this mean that Sky wrote the hook aswel ??

  83. i like white girls when they sing…you did better than ri ri[hayley nichole], i mean skylar

  84. nice song, she did well on teh lupe song too she must b gettin alot of ghost writing checks out there

  85. So yeah wheres the New Lupe single featuring this chick!? #js shake

  86. She is pulling a Bruno Mars. Gonna do alot of ghost writing for famous artist, then do 2 hooks on huge songs (‘I Need A Doctor’, and ‘Words I’ve Never Said’) (Bruno’s was ‘Billionaire’ and Nothing On You’) then do her own song and it’s going to blow up, like Bruno’s ‘Just The Way You Are’.
    I see it happening.
    Just saying.

  87. Dopest song with Skylar aka Holly Brook is Apathy’s “Victim”. Voice is so perfect over that beat. Not sure who else could pull that off better than her.

  88. Would it be stupid for me to say that Skylar Grey should sign to Shady Records?

  89. @SavannahChitlinPimp

    Did you listen to Lupe’s lyrics? What other mainstream rapper is talking like that on wax?
    For 2DB not to promote that is an affront to hiphop. He’s addressing real shit without using metaphors or anything, in plain words. Isnt that what hiphop is about? Oh, I forgot. Not anymore.

  90. Yo, shut up.
    Damn, you dudes talk too much.
    Shut the fuck up and take what’s there.

  91. @Dragonballs

    it’s P.P.S. idiot

  92. While everyone’s else is mad at 2dopeboyz for not posting that Lupe, I’m mad at every other site for not posting this Skylar Grey Demo.

  93. hey shake remember me yeah baby milo the one that was saying fuck you for not posting lupe tracks i told u that everybody want lupe and u being a fag about it damn, i know ur a nobody and a cardboard box but on some real shake put your feelings aside seriously

    LASERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  94. Stop crying about some lupe song, you obviously allready heard it so why do you care if it’s posted here or not? Bitch ass fanboy

  95. it’s the principle. but yall dont have those.

  96. Shake one day you will have to “Man Up” anyways and let your emotions go. Regardless if you don’t like Lupe I think “Words I Never Said” should be posted on 2dbz. Song with that kind of great message should be spread through out all hip hop blogs. Take your panties with the skirt off and grow a pair of balls Shake. Sheeesh catching feelings shouldn’t be a male thing.

  97. Very hot track. They are both good songs. Her voice is more soothing and has a good feel to it.

  98. Hey dpdpupx2c7c8cxes7u2k, very interesting post, it really got me thinking. winpha1xnk d3nz8xulj6 Thank you. lqf7dwl51k
    onqe3f5koq

  99. This is the correct 301 Moved Permanently diary for anyone who wants to essay out out nigh this substance. You asking so some its nearly effortful to debate with you (not that I truly would want…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a subject thats been scrivened around for geezerhood. Overnice nonsense, only extraordinary!
