8:57
relationship progress from there with your father oh there was never a relationship with my father my father
9:02

9:07
married prior to him and she had five children with her first husband he
9:13
passed away and then she met my father mhm you know my mom when she came to the
9:19
states she was only 16 17 years old married with two kids mhm say your
9:25
mother's name if you don't mind moner Lopez I love you mommy there you go come on let's celebrate her we got to put
9:30
that out there this movie um that part of your life I did not know
9:37
I was just dancing to your music I was just shaking my ass to your music but having to play the character
9:45
of your mother I'm curious to how did that affect you psychologically because
9:50
now you're playing your mom who's talking to you yeah that was crazy I remember everything that I've gone
9:57
through with my mom uhhuh she know that um it was let me it was therapeutic okay
10:04
right where to do that um I had three major breakdowns filming this movie but
10:10
I we sat Tony and I sat every day on that set that this movie was being filmed I had to make sure we had to make
10:17
sure that everything was being done correctly but there was a few scenes that I I just that one scene the first
10:25
scene Tony had to pull me out of that scene and I had to breathe
10:30
it was difficult it was really difficult but you know what it helped me it helped me a lot you know realization and and I
10:38
was thankful thankful that my mom really she struggled but she killed it taking
10:44
care of those 10 kids by herself give her a round of applause um thank you thank you how
10:49
did these things affect your relationship you with your Dynamic with men in general at that time
10:59
we oh that's how it is um I was uh married at a very young age
11:08
my first marriage 18 17 what no I was uh uh turning 20 20 okay yeah and um I
11:15
think I I did it simply because I wanted to have my own responsibility I wanted
11:20
to have my own life though I was already having it with my music career I still
11:26
as a family I wanted to I wanted to show my mom I'm I'm all that I can do it I can do it I
11:32
don't really think there was any love there you know because as time went by I realized I'm like what am I doing with
11:39
this person that I don't know you know and he was a Latino that
11:44
was very mucho you know can you explain that to us non-spanish speaking people uh a very
11:53
strong man okay um everything was about him
11:59
for him you know and whatever I did in this business had to go through him so I
12:07
had to let that go you had to let that go yeah I felt controlled stifled I
12:12
couldn't do anything I mean there was a movie that I was offered and I said no because he said
12:17
no is that the part where I'm thinking of the record you had an endorsement deal and I think the record company
12:24
owner said you can't do it cuz you that was actually a uh a commercial
12:29
a commercial and not the record label but my then management said no said she
12:35
couldn't do the commercial because they came first and you belong to them yes w
12:41
wow yes wow and that's the truth
12:47
yeah Lisa a with this we celebrating but you put it in the movie it's all right
12:53
it's all all right it's all right um I find this to be um
12:59
you you've revealed a lot in this movie I did I still didn't reveal a lot and
13:04
there's stuff that you haven't revealed right yes and there's a memoir that I am in the process of writing so that would
13:10
be out and y'all will know everything okay cuz I I know yeah we want to know it all I don't know if folks realize I
13:17
called you a Survivor right yes sir because you are a cancer survivor I am
13:22
give her a round of applause for that thank you at what age were you diagnosed I was 20 years old 20 years old my God
13:31
in the middle of your career on top of the world yes yes and and in the marriage as well yeah and that's one of
13:37
the reasons why I had to get out of that marriage because I was um not giving
13:43
given respect and and and no no kind of help I mean I don't know any other way
13:49
to say it but I was given no help and um no one knew no one knew not even him um
13:57
my management and producers they used to ask me why
14:03
are you so tired and are you pregnant because I used to sleep a lot and then with the medication I used to have that
14:10
pack on my hip um I was getting swollen a little bit my face started getting
14:16
really big because of the steroid in the chemo that I had to carry and take and
14:21
it was just like I can't tell anybody because they had they give me no kind of respect mhm like I'm tired can I sleep
14:30
nope I would get yelled at get up let's go we got to go shake it let's do this
14:35
6:00 in the morning get off the bus get to a pay phone call the radio stations it used to be like 12 radio stations
14:41
back to back then we get to the hotel it would be like 7 in the morning and we'd have to go and try to get some sleep
14:48
nope I was in another room with them trying to record vocals because that's how we were doing the first
14:54
album so you were under all of this duress yes while you were making these
15:00
these beautiful songs yes sir yes sir can you recall being in the studio recording a song knowing that you got
15:07
all of these things on your mind no you can't remember because I I
15:12
focused basically on what I wanted to do and this meant that I can do that you
15:18
know get in the studio you sleep later when you get home off the tour you'll sleep just get there and do a damn good
15:26
job and make sure that it gets done and then get back on the stage and perform disassociate this is Lisa Lisa ladies
15:32
and gentlemen here come on man I'm shaking oh this is amazing though you doing an excellent job and I'm glad you
15:38
shared that because when I when I found out about that I thought about Chadwick Bowman um from Black Panther prise be
15:47
God bless him I wonder what you thought when he when it was discovered that he was diagnosed with cancer and he kept
15:53
working yes yeah I kind of when I saw him and I was like wow he's too thin mhm
15:59
this is before he said he was going through whatever and I'm like is he really going through
16:05
something because why is he so skinny but anyway when they came out and they said that this is what he was going
16:11
through I I shook I got like this ice cold feeling through my body and I was like oh my God the memory the memory
16:17
just hit me I was like this is sick the things people will do just to get it
16:23
done mhm you know but that's the love of what you do that's the strength that you have and I learned that from my mother
16:29
you learned that from your mother yes keep moving Lisa Lisa man I keep saying your name
16:35
man jeez my gosh um in those days women
16:40
were under a lot of scrutiny yeah how you look how you sound you know who you
16:46
hang with yeah um who you date uh right yeah um if you if you get pregnant you
16:53
can't have a baby because the music business ain't came first right that's
16:59
what they did they made me sign papers and I didn't know till years later that
17:04
all of that was in those papers wow what that if you everything no driving fast
17:10
cars no pregnancies no relationships no they controlled everything who are
17:19
they am I allow i y your old management I want to
17:25
put you in yeah okay your old management yes well okay can I ask in a different kind of way for artists especially women
17:33
now who are going to millions of people that's going to see this and people are listening now who are artist yes how
17:38
does an artist avoid this because a lot of times Lisa if you you want a record
17:43
deal a lot of times you signed a production deal first and that's what I did so the details were in the
17:50
production deal yeah it was a production deal that I signed and then they that whole deal was signed to a very small
17:57
label personal r records and then that company went and got us to deal with Colombia got it
18:06
that's and then it was at way years later that we resigned everything and I still didn't know what the hell I was
18:11
signing because I was a kid so you would advise artists it's the production deal is what they need to look production any
18:18
deal anything that's on paper make sure that any deal that you're given is in
18:23
black and white and please have representation please have somebody that
18:28
got your back I have a lawyer read everything before you sign it please I didn't do that I didn't have that no
18:35
then the people who were representing me were representing them so that's a double dip right there MH damn Lisa
18:44
thank you so much for your transparency thank you thank you so much for having a Generous Heart for your creativity can
18:51
you share who was like the first angel that you met within this industry that
18:57
you feel like you could let your guard down you could actually trust who started putting you on a
19:03
different path away from these folks who were in my opinion abusive she's sitting
19:08
right there Tony Tony Minaj Minaj Tony Minaj she get in the camera Tony let him
19:14
see on cuz your character is Bree Breezy um plays Tony right yes we love Bree
19:20
Breeze is incredible my I am har yo she played you to a te too
19:27
man thank you come on Tony this is this is her this is the Angel right here Tony who walk with
19:33
Lisa throughout her career they tried to get you they tried to get rid of Tony they said more than once more than once
19:39
y she's bad news uh her sexuality they said all of that right go ahead I mean
19:45
you know this is the 80s so you you know the music industry especially for women
19:50
yeah you needed to be you know you need to look a certain way women wanted to be like you men wanted to get with you MH
19:57
and so I did you know I think I was cute I had
20:03
look still you still cute Tony but I think very quickly they realized that I
20:09
wasn't I wasn't with it so so what were you thinking when these this management
20:15
was taking advantage of Lisa in the way it was you know I had a record deal
20:20
first uhhuh uh I was 14 and I was on prism and I I had a I I had a reged out
20:27
called video burn uhhuh and it became like a little like a big DJ hit it's a CO classic she has a
20:37
following she has a strong follow yes so I I um I literally got paid $200 to
20:43
record that record they gave me a check for $200 they had me endorse the check right there I was 14 there was no adults
20:51
involved so it's all shady um and I'm the kind of person that you you only going to get me one time
20:57
yeah so they got me me one time yep and then I audition for Lisa at
21:03
17 as kind of like a well you hear you might as well yeah and uh the rest is
21:10
history but I was already peeping like just things Lisa as you can see she's a
21:16
sweet Spirit she's a good human and uh you know it's a boys club and not that
21:22
you know I'm knocking anybody but the business was handled a certain way back then and she was sure was this little
21:29
woman in this group of men and then I came along and I was the second female in the group of men so it was just the
21:35
two of us and we share a room and so we you know when the day would go go along
21:42
and I see things were wrong I'd be like Lisa and she would be like don't say
21:48
nothing I don't want to rock the boat and I'd be like but she's making me nervous all okay you know she she didn't
21:53
want she didn't want anything to get messed up so she we we talked about it amongst ourselves but I was I was
21:59
hipping her like this don't look right this don't sound right H so
22:07
um when I watch the movie I don't see much um um mention of Full Force right
22:13
and their participation in your career right why is that we decided that we
22:18
were going to focus on Lisa Lis and culture and who we were and how it was an upbring you know it came up in this
22:24
business nobody really back then nobody knew who culture wasused we thought Co
22:31
jam and for force was the one B same thing yeah I think that's I think that's uh was the big conversation between Lisa
22:38
myself and Twinkie it wasn't a diss to them it was just you know what a lot of
22:44
people are confused about who Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam is so let's represent uh
22:50
Cult Jam and Lisa in this movie and then of course during the writing of the
22:55
movie uh between the writer Rebecca Twinkie and Lisa and myself it was like
23:01
wow this story between the two of you that was important is really is really important so let's tell that too so it
23:07
wasn't a slight to them leaving them out of the movie it's just we wanted to solidify who Lisa Lisa it was my choice
23:13
I wanted her and if anybody says anything I don't care I needed that
23:19
because she D she literally like dragged me out of the darkness I love this story man big round
23:28
of applause so this well let me ask you this when I look at songs like uh uh head to toe you know um I wonder if I
23:37
take you home all of these different songs um all I'm sorry no no that was
23:42

24:13
opportunity to get my name into what my work uh-huh uh someone to love me for me

allowed to party I wasn't allowed to do anything so Tony was out there in the mix and I'm
26:27
like you know did you guys have fun yesterday last night you know can can can I hang out
26:33
no so that's how I got that's how you got that's how you was able to avoid those things that time period when you
26:40
think of movies like Beat Street and Crush Grove and wild style and Star Wars
26:46
all those movies come on man stop playing with me Lisa come
26:51
on what what did y'all see there's been this ongoing discourse about who was there in the beginning in hip-hop
26:59
uh Puerto Ricans blacks so on and so forth what did y'all see oh for me it was Puerto Ricans and blacks we are
27:06
growing up that come come we came up hand in hand I grew up in East Harlem so
27:11
Puerto Ricans and black people we were the same there but we are black yes I know say that we are black Puerto Ricans
27:18
are we are black we are stand stand somebody got to say it man true we
27:25
say it they don't listen No it's it's true do the history do the knowledge but but I think what what's
27:31
happened over the years is that because Puerto Rico is part of the United States
27:38
they've assimilated right and they want they want to be more Associated you know
27:43
it it everybody wants to be black when the juice and the and the sauce is there
27:48
the juice and the sauce ain't there they they they don't want all the heat that we get right so it it's the same thing
27:54
with them I just think that like as time went by they're like okay well we're not technically black well you're not
27:59
Spaniard either this is not Spain at all you you've been colonized with the rest
28:05
of us that is why New York is considered the Melting Pot We Are The Melting Pot
28:11
because everybody from all works of the of the world came and we jumped in that
28:16
pot we jumped in this pot we all live here okay Puerto Rico is the same thing a lot of people migrated from Africa
28:23
from Spain I could keep going and they liveed they were raised there okay so we
28:28
are mix we are tyo Indian MH we are the black tyo Indian hello MH we are black m
28:35
i don't care nobody okay that's it we're going to move on from that conversation I think you said enough right there Beau
28:41
Lisa Lisa damn give her a big round of applause um I bring up freestyle music a
28:46
lot you know um my good friend that I started a business with um with my
28:52
partner King Tech named Aki star he's Al he's the lead singer for Spanish fly now
28:58
up with them beat boys breaking the whole nine in Northern California he hit me maybe 3 weeks ago or maybe four weeks
29:05
ago from South America and he's opening up for Stevie B oh sorry and it's sold out Arenas work
29:14
it work it right but that's the power of freestyle music can you explain to people what the
29:20
freestyle culture was like when you were coming up I know you just was doing music but they put that label on In
29:26
freestyle what is freestyle to you freestyle to me was the a mixture of
29:32
hip-hop and Latin Beats from New York okay okay the Bronx that's where it
29:38
started M and um it's the music that it was freestyle because the freestyle
29:45
dancers the B boys used to dance to it in the clubs on the streets with lenium
29:51
floors and the shell top Adidas that's what they used to move to okay so they
29:57
considered it freestyle music that's how I take it that's how I see it and then
30:02
they started calling it Latin hipop because they started playing us real heavy on the radio and clubs M
30:09
that's my take on that's that's your take so did you did you uh have any camaraderie with some of the groups that
30:16
came out like expose or TKA or all of these people that came at that time I
30:21
