American singer Sky Ferreira has recorded songs for one studio album, three extended plays, and non-album singles. She signed a recording contract with Parlophone in 2009,[1] and released the song "One" through the label in 2010.[2] It was written by Ferreira, Bloodshy & Avant, Magnus Lidehäll, and Marit Bergman,[3] and peaked at number 64 on the UK Singles Chart.[2] It was followed by "Obsession" later that year, which was written by Ferreira, Jerrod Bettis, Justin Franks, and Ryan Tedder.[4] It reached number 37 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart.[5] During this time, much of her lyrical content incorporated themes of rebellion and teenage romance.[6]
Ferreira released her first extended play As If in 2011, for which she co-wrote "Sex Rules" and "99 Tears" with Greg Kurstin and "Haters Anonymous" and "108" with Bloodshy & Avant.[7] Her second extended play Ghost was released in 2012 by Capitol Records;[8] it substituted the synthpop styles displayed in her earlier projects,[9] and instead showcased more prominent elements of acoustic, new wave, and rock music.[10] Its second single "Everything Is Embarrassing" was written by Ferreira, Dev Hynes, and Ariel Rechtshaid,[11] and has sold 19,000 copies in the United States as of March 2014.[12]
Ferreira released her debut studio album Night Time, My Time in 2013;[13] it was largely inspired in indie rock musical styles.[14] The record debuted at number 45 on the U.S. Billboard 200, becoming her first entry on the chart.[15] Ariel Rechtshaid and Justin Louis "J.L." Raisen helped to co-write each of its twelve tracks.[16] Her third extended play Night Time, My Time: B-Sides Part 1 was released roughly one month later,[17] and featured additional writing contributions from Rechitshaid.[18] That year, she additionally appeared as a featured vocalist on the track "Black" by South Korean recording artist G-Dragon for his second studio album Coup d'Etat; he co-wrote the song with Teddy Park.[19]
