I Am What I Am is a studio album that includes the first recordings by Milan (with the exception of two early singles). The front cover (pictured) also includes "presenting a bright new star". The album was produced by Budd Granoff. Although Milan recorded many additional songs on later singles, this was the only album ever released in his name.
