### March 2021-August 2021: Industry Companies and Audio Breakthrough

After taking a break from releasing fancams, Syro moved on to other personal projects he wanted to pursue, such as releasing his first YouTube video of a mashup he produced, titled "God in the Dark." It was met with widespread acclaim for its rich sound and began the start of this YouTube and audio production career. One week later, he released his second audio mashup, "The Edge of Yoü and I." During this time, he also started FCPlayboy Inc. with his friend, MOTIVESPORT in March 2021, which runs the Playboy Magazine. During its activeness, he acted as main actor of the radio station Playboy Radio, which was later deprecated to replace the streaming service FCApple Music.

Subsequently, in early April, he started the account Industry Struggles, which was met with immediate infamy at the account's first creation. He began to post shocking screenshots of the interesting things that members of The Industry had said whilst keeping his identity secret. Later on, the responsibility of the account also extended to recording hit messages in The Industry group chat. Also, MOTIVESPORT had revealed the identity of Industry Struggles to be Syro. Afterward, in June 2021, he released the mashup "Marry the Night" between Lady Gaga and the Kylie Minogue cover, which was met with universal acclaim, which people applauded his abilities to mix the two versions wonderfully, especially by Prisoner.

Since then, across June to August, he has released 4 more audio mashups, "WAPatella", "Judas", "thank u, greedy', and "Chained to the Rules'", the second which also received over 1 thousand views. With each mashup he releases on YouTube, he extends his record of receiving 100 views on all of his YouTube videos. Syro has the most successful YouTube career of all time of any Industry Member, with almost 20 thousand views.

### September 2021-present: Success with Professional Producing

After discovering Syro's strong ability as a producer, Prisoner reached out to him to request him to produce a special audio for a remix of one of his fancams, which turned out to be the "Fitness Remix ft. BP." After listening, Prisoner and BP were said to have loved the audio, and decided to make the remix using the audio Syro produced. When the fancam was released, the audio was met with universal acclaim and Syro was heavily commended for his skill to create the audio that uniquely blended the vocals that were perfect for the remix. *Fitness Remix. ft BP* eventually went No. 1 on the Fancam Hot 100 and the audio was praised by many, even outside The Industry. Fitness Remix ft. BP is featured on Prisoner's album, Planet Fitness.

Syro also has another fancam he produced the audio for for an upcoming fancam by a big artist, but has yet to reveal the audio or the artist he is working with.

He is also featured on Cuzimbored's upcoming album, *CRUEL SUMMER*, the first fancam he has helped create since the release of *I Did No Crime* in February.
