Syler seems to be taking on a number of roles in his career: rapper, songwriter, producer. The current and forthcoming generation of artists want full control of their artistry so they can have a way on how they’re presented and who gets a chance to hear and see them. It’s one of those things that a lot of artists of the past didn’t get a chance to do themselves, but Syler wants to make a difference and he’s doing this. A part of what he does can be heard in “What I Am”, and for this one he simply handled the rapping and writing, and allowed J. Glaze to handle things behind the boards. The song will be on Syler’s forthcoming street album, One Minute To Midnight, scheduled for release on November 19th.
