In an interview, he later stated that there were creative differences between him and the label.
Moving on, he founded his own record label called Halunkenbande.
But just a few months after signing the rappers Dú Maroc and SadiQ, Saad announced that he couldn"t focus on the label at the moment because of a stroke of fate that caused him to move back to Lebanon. After his return to Germany in 2013 – Dú Maroc and SadiQ had meanwhile been dropped by the label – Saad continued both his career and the label management.
In April 2013, Saad"s latest solo album South Doppel A Doctorate was released.
