performances was in front of a live audience of over ten thousand people where he billed as the opening act at an                                                         Event promoted by Cedric Walker Known as the                                               “The Too Damn Hype Jam” in April 1993 where Hector was assigned the task of  opening act for Big Daddy KANE and DJ Mr Cee at the  Omni Coliseum, now replaced by the Phillips Arena in Atlanta. Hector was approached by DJ Mr. Cee after performing a song called "Illin for a killin" , but was unable to take Mr.Cee up on his offer because Hector's circle of financial backers were at war with one another over an unpaid narcotics debt, this was of no fault of Hector's, but he suffered because of it.
