Aside from being an actor, Sam Milby wants to be recognized as musician



MANILA, Philippines – Actor-singer Sam Milby finds it easier to write songs when he’s in a specific disposition.
“Kapag malungkot ako or heartbroken or medyo may galit or bitterness,” Sam enumerated in an article by Push.com.ph posted on Oct. 13.
Sam even compared himself with his “ASAP Rocks” mainstay and “Pinoy Dream Academy” season one winner Yeng Constantino when it comes to songwriting.
“Si Yeng, nakita ko siya pwede siya mag-gitara at gumawa ng song on the spot, ako hindi talaga,” said he.
He cited his composition “Pushing Me Away” from his latest album, “Be Mine” as example, saying, “bigla ko lang naisip [yung kanta] habang naglalakad ako sa harap ng library sa New York. Then when I got home I tried it with the guitar.”
However, Sam neither confirmed nor denied that the song pertains to his breakup with Anne Curtis in 2008.
“Basta. Hindi ko sasabihin kung sino. I’d leave that to everyone else to guess. There’s a lot of artists that are not songwriters. Pero yung song na yun, ako mismo ang gumawa ng melody at lyrics two years ago,” he shared.
Sam maintained music is his “forever first love” and therefore “would never give [it] up.”
“I enjoy singing kahit may stage fright ako kapag nagpe-perform,” he added.
Aside from a handful of movies and TV series, the former “Pinoy Big Brother” housemate has already released two solo studio albums prior to “Be Mine.” These were “Sam Milby” in 2006 and “A Little Too Perfect” in 2009.
“I hope kahit papaano, people still look at me as a musician, hindi lang as an actor,” the actor-singer said.
