WHO I AM
by WYN STARKS
Wyn Starks appeared on Season 17 of America’s Got Talent in 2020, after sharing his story with the judges, Wyn performed his hit track, Who I Am, to a standing ovation.
Written by Josh Bronleewe, Vanessa Campagna, and Wayne Starks, and produced by Josh Bronleewe, Who I Am features on Wyn's 2021 debut album Black Is Golden, and went on to reach Number 14 on the US Billboard Chart.
In 2024, Celine Dion triumphantly covered the track in her emotional Amazon Prime documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, tracing the superstar's battle with stiff-person syndrome. Wyn's uplifting song continues to resonate with those navigating a struggle to find their strength.
“I gotta be me / Gotta be I / Gotta be who I know I am inside / Can finally breathe, taking it in, look at me flying!” Celine sang the poignant lyrics.
After watching Celine‘s documentary, Wyn took to Instagram and said, “I have no words to describe what I’m feeling! I’ll be on cloud 9 for the rest of my life! It’s such a full circle moment because @celinedion has been such an inspiration to me and her music has helped me get through so many obstacles in my life so seeing her belt out ‘Who I Am’ with such strength and resilience in spite of everything she’s going through will be a moment I’ll never forget. I still get emotional thinking about it!”
It wasn't long before UK audiences began discovering Who I Am too, with the track appearing on the UK Official Download Chart and UK Singles Sales Chart over summer 2024.
