Veteran Ghanaian music producer, Edward Nana Poku Osei, popularly known as Hammer, has disclosed why he quit producing beats.

Years after Hammer took up a different challenge; he has explained why he did that.

He revealed in an interview with Kafui Dey on GTV—which Newshuntermag.com has come across that he felt like a prisoner—due to the hours he used to work.

“I was bored. I felt like a prisoner. I was locked up in a room with no windows for fifteen-plus years. The artistes come and go….these boys were out on stage jumping around. When they come back, you are still in that space.

“I sat down for 8 hours playing, making beats, producing, and it got boring at some point. So, I became like an uncaged dog when I got the chance to get out. That’s why you see me on the street,” he said.

According to him, getting weight was due to the hours he spent at the studio working without doing any exercise.

“My name is ‘Slim The Hammer’ I wasn’t fat; I was an athlete in PRESEC. So, this business of becoming big was the studio.”

The veteran music producer, who is now into a bread business, further revealed he has a small studio at home used by himself and his kids.

“I have a small set up at home that my children use, so after the playing around, I want to get the thing back to my fingers. I’m gonna need some help though. It’s been 7 years since I touched equipment.”
