In 2010, Grey co-wrote Eminem's hit single "Love the Way You Lie" with English producer Alex da Kid, who signed Grey to his record label Kidinakorner, an imprint of Interscope Records. Her second album, Don't Look Down (2013) peaked within the top ten of the Billboard 200, while her third, Natural Causes (2016) was met with critical acclaim despite failing to chart. Her 2021 single, "Last One Standing" (with Polo G, Mozzy and Eminem) marked her first entry—at number 78—on the Billboard Hot 100 as a lead artist. The following year, her self-titled fourth album (2022) was released independently to continued acclaim.
