    • Hammer was raised in a very religious household, and was a member of the religious rap group The Holy Ghost Boys in his teens.
    • Hammer switched to Giant Records to try a heavier sound with an edge. He titled his more aggressive project The Funky Headhunter. The first music video released for it was Pumps and Bump, it was banned from heavy rotation at MTV. Censors claimed that Hammer clad in just a Speedo bathing suit was too graphic; an alternate was filmed with Hammer fully clothed. He later released Inside Out in 1995; the album peaked at #119 on the Billboard charts, and received horrible reviews. He was dropped by Giant Records as a result.
    • Hammer was a bat boy for the Oakland Athletics professional baseball team from 1972-1980, under team owner Charles Finley. He was the 'eyes and ears' of the bullpen, reporting all goings on to Charles. Hammer would entertain the baseball fans by dancing during the breaks in the games. He received his nickname from baseball great Reggie Jackson, for his resemblance to "Hammerin" Hank Aaron.
