His dynamism on the drums earned him a contract in 1998 with internationally acclaimed drum makers, Tama, for whom he has done drum workshops through Thoroughbred Music, Tampa, Florida.  In February 2002, Frederick made Caribbean history by becoming the first musician to obtain a permanent contract with international drum stick company, Vic Firth Inc. in Massachusetts, to endorse their products.  In April 2002 he reinforced his dynamism and expertise on the drums by securing another endorsement with renowned cymbal makers Paiste America Inc. in Brea, California and later in September of the same year, he proved himself when he attained a contract with drum makers MRP Custom Drums.  Similar accomplishments followed shortly after.  He procured two (02) more endorsements with US companies: Evans Inc., pioneers of drum head “manufacturing and design” for over 40 years and DrumFrame, creators of “innovative cutting edge products” for drummers and non-drummers alike.

 Frederick’s ultimate goal is to become a full time musician, enter the international arena and procure a contract with an international label.  However, until then, he is just enjoying the groove.

 "When I play a tune, my heart and soul go into it,” he said.  “I love music.”
