S.O.A opened for renowned artists including, Redman, Method Man, Wu Tang Clan, KRS-One, Royce da 5’9”, Proof, and Eminem. In 1999 S.O.A was offered a record deal with Tommy Boy Records, S.O.A. held out hoping to receive more offers but in the end no deal was made and the brothers focused on solo careers. November of 1999 Regan jumped on stage as a stand-up comic in local Detroit Comedy Clubs and soon after auditioned and was awarded the leading role in a Regional Ford Focus Commercial and knew acting was his passion, all in the same year Regan left Detroit for Hollywood.
