Hammer Announces Return To Music

Famous Ghanaian sound engineer and producer Edward Nana Poku, popularly known as Hammer in the music scene, has announced plans to return to the business after a ten-year hiatus.

A major contributor to the advancement of Ghanaian music has been Hammer, the creator and frontman of the Last 2 Music Group.

 

He accepted a day job at A1 Bread Factory as the managing partner and head of sales and marketing while he was overseas.

 

One of the most well-known sound engineers in Ghana, Hammer has won multiple prizes and acclaim across the globe. He stated on his official Facebook page that he must leave the bread company to focus on a music project.

He claims that juggling the demands of his day job with the album’s production has caused the project’s release to be delayed, which is why he decided to step down from the company.

“The problem is, this album’s completion has become protracted due to my trying to balance the demands of my creative process and my day job as managing partner and head of sales/marketing at A1 Bread, all whilst simultaneously trying to manage Red Eye’s comeback album as well… so I had to make a decision.

“I’m glad to report that A1 Bread has accepted my resignation in good faith to allow me to focus on my return to music, and my decision to resign from my day job will not impact my standing in the company as an equity stakeholder whatsoever,” he wrote.

He, however, noted that his return to music will also not affect his retail and distribution deal with Ekumfi Juice.

“Ekumfi Juice, on the other hand, isn’t as demanding because we’re only key distributors of the brand; thus, the team will continue serving you the best pineapple juice in the world today. Look out for my new album ‘Upper Echelon’ in early 2024,” he noted.

Hammer’s name is etched in the annals of hiplife for producing a lot of the influential hiplife artistes at the primordial stages of the genre.

He is famed for working with talents such as Obrafour, Kwaw Kese, Tinny, Edem, Sarkodie, Mantse, among others.
