Career Break
By the end of the 1990s Freddy was exhausted. His hectic life-style had taken it out of him so he found time to return to Jamaica and re-discover his roots. Whilst he still lent vocals to prominent dancehall tracks in Jamaica his next major work did not come until he came back to the UK, with a new lease of life. Freddy teamed up with renowned dub producer The Rootsman in 2000 to make the new album, Old School – New School (Third Eye Music).
Since then Freddy has been making new music and recording and training dancehall artists.
In 2002, Daddy Freddy recorded his first ever Drum and Bass track 'War' (written and produced by Alex Romane who co-wrote and co-produced the world's first officially-released Progressive Hardcore/Jungle/Drum and Bass album 'Delirious' in 1992 with Nathan Robinson). Initially, 'War' was shelved from release by studio personnel until its liberation via EMP and was released in 2007, with a re-release on iTunes and several hundred additional mp3 shippers in January 2012.

Famous quotes containing the words career and/or break:
“My ambition in life: to become successful enough to resume my career as a neurasthenic.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Violence upon the roads: violence of horses;
Some few have handsome riders, are garlanded
On delicate sensitive ear or tossing mane,
But wearied running round and round in their courses
All break and vanish, and evil gathers head:
Herodias’ daughters have returned again.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
