@@selenat264 Miami Sound Machine first Major billboard hit was in 1985, Mainstream America did not know of them until then, that was one Year after Lisa Lisa's first billboard hit, although Gloria was around long before, she was not well known until the Song Conga hit the charts, So Lisa Lisa hit the record Pop Charts first This is why she is Considered the first Latina to do that
Talent, Humility, Class ALL IN ONE!!!!!! Your voice Lisa was the soundtrack to my teenage years! 1985 - I was in 11th grade in Philly! Beautiful time, sitting on the steps at night - listening to Power 99 countdown, having our water ice and cheesesteaks! NOBODY was bothering nobody! WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE! Luv u Lisa!!!!
No one in the 80s had a bigger crush than me. I use to steal her pictures periodically out of the Right On magazine and plastered my wall with her. I know her nickname is Chiquita cuz I wrote to Right on magazine and got a response. I was in love with her. ❤
I ADORE this woman! born and raised in NY also, I idolised her❤..you are the most BEAUTIFUL soul.. hearing your music to this day STILL makes me SO HAPPY.. God bless Lisa Lisa💕💕🫶🏽🙏🏽
I always knew Full Force was a separate group. I was never confused. I didn't now Full FOrce wrote "Take You Home". They should have been in the movie even for a small bit. That song was her first hit.
Yeah I always knew Full Force was a separate group and great producers/song writers... at that time it was Full Force, Jam and Lewis, and LA Reid and Babyface,. Everything they produced at the time was gold.
Big track in the UK fell into the Electro category, played along with Shannon Let the Music Play, Madonna Lucky Star. So many memories of people battling B Boy style and Body popping, what track played.
They wrote and produced on that song, sad that they had a falling out some kinda way would've liked to see them in the film hopefully they will tell their side of the story why
I had tears coming down to my eyes when he gave Lisa Lisa her flowers. The Latin community is proud of our girl. I am a fan of freestyle and it’s my era. I am so fortunate and proud to be apart of a great Era.
Legends amongst legends I was so into Lisa Lisa in the 80,s her work and contributions are stamped in musical culture great to see her always looking forward to viewing the movie blessings queen
Sway, tell it louder: " come back to the History".💯💫. I also confirm what Lisa and Tony are saying. Latinos (Latin american people) we have these (geopraphically called American continent ) aborigin roots, spanish roots (from the old colonizers) and african roots ... (For those who don't know: Go back to the history ...). 🥰🌺Beside Thank you Sway, to you and your team, for being beatifully welcoming and for making smart questions such precious artists and legends ... being sharing worthy and inspiring testimonies to others....🥰🥰🥰 .....
@@kennymac8391 as much as I love Lisa Lisa her music was Pop, not so much freestyle, And The Queens of Freestyle would Be Nayobi and Judy Torres, they were doing it Before Lisa Lisa, they are both unsung Queens that don't get the Flowers they deserve they actually had the First First Freestyle songs Nayobi with Please don't go and Judy Torres with No Reason To Cry
I'm so happy for Lisa, Lisa. She deserves 💜 every award for her major contribution to the music industry. 💐 🌹 🎉 🎶 🎵 💃 🕺 The LMN movie was very good. 😅😊I also think she deserves Lisa Lisa Barbie Doll.
I always knew Full Force was a separate group and great producers/song writers... at that time it was Full Force, Jam and Lewis, and LA Reid and Babyface,. Everything they produced at the time was gold.
@TaraGeorge711 did you watch it? I recorded it but haven't seen it yet. I agree but was waiting to see exactly what they did. As someone who came up during that time as a huge fan, I know how important and prevalent Full Force was, so if they're truly not even present in the film, it's kinda ridiculous. I hate when biopics do that and essentially rewrite history.
I love this!! Such a great time when I consider the music of my day. I wonder if they knew how powerful their expressions was, artists from the 80's and 90's?
Lisa-Lisa???? Let me tell you what it was like back then!! Lisa-Lisa and Kult Jam ran all the clubs. I agree with Sway about the goosebumps. You talk about the happiest time of your life. OMG if you were there, you know.
I shaved one side of my head because I loved Lisa Lisa and cult jam I was the first girl to do that at my high school in Louisiana and others followed❤️❤️
There would be no Lisa Lisa without Fullforce! It is VERY DISAPPOINTING that they were not included in this movie. It was a big mistake leaving them out. Sad, and I loved LL.
WHEN FIRST WENT TO THE PARADISE GARAGE IN 1986, I WAS 20 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME & LARRY LEVAN PLAYED "I WONDER IF I TAKE YOU HOME" ON THAT CUSTOM MADE RICHARD LONG SOUND SYSTEM, THAT BASS WAS SO STRONG THAT YOU FELT THAT BASS HITTING YOU IN YOUR CHEST, I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!
Cheryl Pepsi Riley was originally chosen asked by Full Force to do sing. I wonder if I take you home. She turned it down in comes Lisa Lisa. The rest is music 🎶 🎵 history.
I'm from Florida and it all depends on location. Cities like Palm Bay and Port Charlotte people are still moving in and builders are still building. Cities like Lakeland and Tampa people are leaving slowing down buying houses.
Julia Richmond school is now a performing arts school that my daughter graduated from and have a connection with Lisa Lisa , my sister lived in Hell’s Kitchen before she moved to London. But, wasn’t in the 80’s she move she moved in 2015 from Hell’s Kitchen. Alicia keys is from Hell’s Kitchen too. Lol
@@roselynholloway7863 -- they SAID it definitely WAS intentional -- because they wanted to focus on who Lisa-Lisa & Cult Jam were, apart from Full Force, as well as to hone in on Lisa & Toni's friendship. what they specified it was NOT was a slight...........but truthfully? even that i kinda question. and i get it. Lisa made it clear she doesn't care if anyone doesn't like it. and hey, it's HER story, so she gets to tell it however she damn-well pleases! and good for her cuz SHE's in control now! but to what i think you're actually asking -- i kinda DO think that, for whatever reason (& hey, maybe it'll be revealed more in her memoir!), it WAS also somewhat of a "slight"/"shade" to Full Force. i mean COME ON! it was THEIR songwriting, production, arrangements and imaging that MADE her a friggin' HOUSEHOLD NAME in NYC!!! and NOT even the Cult Jam....but HER Alone. & Sway's question implies FF isn't mentioned At All in this biopic. If that's true - IF the biopic portrays it like FF didn't EXIST or didn't play ANY part in her success (to me) would speak VOLUMES. so yeah. i think it was lo-key, a slight to Full Force. and i suspect it was very deliberate. ~ b. #ButIveBeenWrongAboutWorseThingsLOL
I totally agree!!!!! That's wack!!! Full Force wrote her best and known songs that made her a household name. They were a great group with great personalities. They are actually brothers. Paul Anthony from Full Force actually sang and appeared in "All cried out " video. That's just not cool.
Sway's introductions are awesome. Love how he gives out flowers to these legends.
Love seeing her get her flowers. She’s so humble…she deserves all the love and support in the world.
I was in love with Lisa Lisa! She is a musical icon with a list of timeless classics ❤️
@@ronbeez58 I remember all the girls in My Hood, had that shaved on one side, bangs covering the one eye with the headbands hair style, All the girls wanted to look like her, and all the guys wished they had a girl that was built and looked like her lol
Shes really strong to survive cancer while working the way she did..i couldn't survive that..
Before there was Gloria Estefan, before there was Selena, before there was Shakira, and before there was Jennifer Lopez, There was Lisa Lisa paving the way
She sure did!
She was not before Gloria Esteban. Gloria started in the 70's.😂 Lisa Lisa was in the 80's.

But, I love Lisa Lisa! She was a significant part of my teens. Her along with many others!!! 💜

@@ptahtep72 Wrong, Every Boy in America had a Thing For Lisa Lisa,!!!!!
Interview has me remembering Penny Candy. Lisa Lisa, an icon and music is the jam still till this day.
Yes thanks for dropping the gems about the Puerto Rican culture that most folks choose to ignore ❤
God bless Lisa Lisa and shout out to Sway for always being a great interviewer and radio personality.
Love Lisa Lisa....glad her story is getting out...
I ADORE this woman! born and raised in NY also, I idolised her❤..you are the most BEAUTIFUL soul.. hearing your music to this day STILL makes me SO HAPPY.. God bless Lisa Lisa💕💕🫶🏽🙏🏽
Lisa & Toni are super dope & I just love Sway's energy.
I always knew Full Force was a separate group. I was never confused. I didn't now Full FOrce wrote "Take You Home". They should have been in the movie even for a small bit. That song was her first hit.
Full Force made her a house hold name wit all her popular songs
Yeah I always knew Full Force was a separate group and great producers/song writers... at that time it was Full Force, Jam and Lewis, and LA Reid and Babyface,. Everything they produced at the time was gold.
Big track in the UK fell into the Electro category, played along with Shannon Let the Music Play, Madonna Lucky Star. So many memories of people battling B Boy style and Body popping, what track played.
I agree. I LOVE Lisa, but ngl excluding Full Force from her bio-pic doesn’t seem right 🤷🏽♂️
They wrote and produced on that song, sad that they had a falling out some kinda way would've liked to see them in the film hopefully they will tell their side of the story why
I went to Richman T.U class of 85!! Can't wait for it Lisa Lisa!
Did you know her?
I was a freshman in Richman in 85
And don't even forget, "Let The Beat Hit Em"! She had a major resurgence with that hit in the 90s 💯💯🔥🔥
I had tears coming down to my eyes when he gave Lisa Lisa her flowers. The Latin community is proud of our girl. I am a fan of freestyle and it’s my era. I am so fortunate and proud to be apart of a great Era.
Big ups 🙏 to Sway for bringing the great Lisa Lisa to show 🔥...
Sway will give you your flowers.
I strongly agree with you😊
Lisa Lisa in the building 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥💜🤎
Legends amongst legends I was so into Lisa Lisa in the 80,s her work and contributions are stamped in musical culture great to see her always looking forward to viewing the movie blessings queen
I became a Lisa Lisa fan the moment she came out with Cul Jam , my nephew plays Spanador in her movie
Thanks so much for this Lisa Lisa & Sway Universe team! What a vibe, can’t wait to see the movie!
Takes me back to my childhood and singing All cried out at age 6. Lisa Lisa and cult jam was my favorite group.

I always knew Full Force was a separate group and great producers/song writers... at that time it was Full Force, Jam and Lewis, and LA Reid and Babyface,. Everything they produced at the time was gold.
Don't forget about platinum and multi-platinum
Exactly. Me too and everyone I knew. Maybe it was white people and maybe Latino who were confused
I love Lisa Lisa but to leave Full Force out of the story is a sin.
