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:
“The problem, thus, is not whether or not women are to combine marriage and motherhood with work or career but how they are to do so—concomitantly in a two-role continuous pattern or sequentially in a pattern involving job or career discontinuities.”
—Jessie Bernard (20th century)
“Ye banks and braes o’ bonnie Doon,
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And I sae weary fu’ o’ care?
Thou’lt break my heart, thou warbling bird,
That wantons thro’ the flowering thorn:
Thou minds me o’ departed joys,
Departed never to return.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
