Being inspired by what he saw in Zapp Mallet’s studio, Da Hammer began his music recording journey.
“I had never recorded any song when I first met Zapp Mallet. He was recording Reggie Rockson album when I met him for the first time. I was amazed when I saw the equipment but we weren’t allowed to stay for long. Ever since meeting Zapp Mallet, I decided to also be a music engineer.” Hammer told Kwame Bee on Kasapa FM
