The full version of Nicki Minaj's collaboration with Skylar Grey has surfaced online. Before hitting the web on Sunday, November 16, the song titled "Bed of Lies" was previewed by the raptress and her collaborator during the 2014 MTV Europe Music Awards on November 9.
The ballad was co-produced by Alex Da Kid and Kane Beatz. It opens with the hook by Grey. Minaj emerges later to blast her ex-boyfriend. "You could never make eye contact/ Everything you got was based off of my contacts," she raps and goes on recalling the dark moments in their relationship.
"Bed of Lies" was written by Grey about a year ago. Minaj then came and added hip-hop flavor to the emotional song. "When I heard that she was taking the song I was surprised because it's not a typical kind of song for her. I was very excited when I heard what she did with it. She seemed to take it to a very personal place," Grey recently told Billboard.
The song will appear on Minaj's "The Pinkprint" album that's due out on December 15. "She kind of poured her heart out on the verses. I personally think as a fan it's a nice contrast to her other singles on the record. You get to see another side of her," Grey added.
