   Latin Pop Artist Lisa Lisa : A Journey Through Music, Resilience, and Legacy

   In this inspiring conversation, Latin pop pioneer Lisa Lisa sits down to discuss her remarkable career and the recently released Netflix biopic "Can You Feel the Best" about her life. From singing in her church choir at age four to becoming a trailblazer for Latina artists in pop music, Lisa Lisa opens up about her journey through a male-dominated industry and the strength she drew from her mother, who raised ten children alone. She shares intimate details about keeping her breast cancer diagnosis private while maintaining her demanding performance schedule, the emotional experience of playing her own mother in the film, and how the casting process brought her story to life with remarkable authenticity.Now back in the studio after 30 years, Lisa Lisa reflects on how success has evolved for her over the decades and what keeps her creative fire burning. She discusses her ongoing collaboration with manager Tony Minaj, the universal language of music and its power to trigger vivid memories, and the invaluable lesson she'd share with her younger self: don't be afraid to say no and believe in yourself more. Between sips of cinnamon-laced coffee, she reveals upcoming projects and surprises for fans, proving that her passion for music remains as strong as ever. The 2025 movie about Lisa Lisa is a biographical drama titled Can You Feel the Beat: The Lisa Lisa Story. It tells the story of the Latin freestyle singer Lisa Velez, her rise to fame, and her struggles with sexism, racism, and breast cancer. The film, which premiered on Lifetime, stars Jearnest Corchado as Lisa Lisa and Bre-Z as Toni Menage. About the Movie Tells the story of global phenomenon, Lisa Lisa who paved the way for artists like Selena and Jennifer Lopez to shine. As a 15-year-old Puerto Rican girl from Hell’s Kitchen, Lisa Velez endured sexism, racism and hid her breast cancer diagnosis to become the first Latina artist to hit multiple music Billboard charts including songs “Can You Feel The Beat,” “All Cried Out,” and “Lost in Emotion.” Lisa’s constant companion through her tumultuous ride to the top was her best friend and backup singer, Toni Ménage. Toni’s unwavering support helped Lisa learn how to take control of her professional and personal life. This true-life story of two best friends who refused to allow themselves to be destroyed by the entertainment business is filled with twists and turns and ends triumphantly as the two refused to give up on their dreams.
