Sky'high - Forever Sky'high Born of Scottish, Aboriginal and Fijian heritage, Elefant Traks latest signee, SKY'HIGH (real name Skh'ai Gerrey), describes herself as a "true blue Aussie through and through". Growing up in the housing commissions of Maroubra and Ultimo in Sydney, surrounded by a lifestyle of drugs, alcohol and violence, Sky's inner strength guided her through an upbringing completely foreign to most Australian kids. Voted Best Female MC in the 2010 Ozhiphop Awards, Sky'high cites BOBBI SYKES, BETTY DAVIS, and THE LAST KINECTION as influences. Although it's early days, her co-signs tell a story.

Born of Scottish, Aboriginal and Fijian heritage, Elefant Traks latest signee, SKY'HIGH (real name Skh'ai Gerrey), describes herself as a "true blue Aussie through and through". Growing up in the housing commissions of Maroubra and Ultimo in Sydney, surrounded by a lifestyle of drugs, alcohol and violence, Sky's inner strength guided her through an upbringing completely foreign to most Australian kids. Voted Best Female MC in the 2010 Ozhiphop Awards, Sky'high cites BOBBI SYKES, BETTY DAVIS, and THE LAST KINECTION as influences. Although it's early days, her co-signs tell a story. The highly acclaimed and respected NZ producer P-MONEY is handling the entire album's production and she recently completed a national tour with labelmates, THE HERD, and Sydney's THUNDAMENTALS. SKY'HIGH is one of the most compelling artists to emerge from the local hip hop scene. She has a natural authenticity; an unpredictability that is kept in check by her fierce loyalty. At a glance, tough as nails; raw and aggressive; but her disarming smile hints that there is much more than meets the eye. There's little doubt that there is no one on the planet that sounds quite like her. Though in many ways she embodies the spirit of hip hop, and staunchly represents her area in a way true to her. Accordingly, her debut album 'FOREVER SKY'HIGH' is a family affair, produced entirely by NZ'S P-MONEY (AKON, SCRIBE, SKILLZ, JOELL ORTIZ) and featuring a minimal guests (one of the select few is Elefant Traks' THE TONGUE). The result immediately places her as arguably Australia's finest female emcee, not to mention the architect of one of 2012's finest hip-hop releases.
