Acclaimed Ghanaian music producer Hammer has shared how he made his first profit from music after working in the industry for seven years.

In an interview on the Konnected Minds Podcast, shared on Facebook, Hammer noted that the only money he made from music during his first seven years in the industry came from studio sessions.

According to him, he started making profits from music after producing rapper Edem.

He explained that the reason he did not quit music despite failing to make a profit throughout those seven years was the zeal and passion he had for it.

“Edem, because I was the executive producer. That was the first time I saw returns after about seven years of being in the industry.

“The rest were all studio sessions, come and go. Unless you have money at home, because most of us did it because it was cool,” he said.
