Singer and actress Lisa Velez (Lisa Lisa) who rose to fame in the 80s supergroup Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, joins forces with Lifetime to executive produce and star in, Can You Feel the Beat: The Lisa Lisa Story. The fully authorized biopic will premiere in 2025 as part of the network’s Voices of a Lifetime movie slate which includes previously announced Mary J. Blige’s Family Affair, executive produced by Mary J. Blige and starring Ajiona Alexus and Da’Vinchi. The film stars Lisa Velez as her mother, Jearnest Corchado (Sneaker Heads, Little America) as Lisa Velez, Bre Z (All American, Empire) as Toni Ménage, and NYC radio personality, Angie Martinez as Nurse Rodriguez.

The film 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.

Can You Feel the Beat: The Lisa Lisa Story is produced by Swirl Films with Tracy “Twinkie” Byrd, Lisa Velez, Toni Ménage, Abbey Sibucao, Ron Robinson and Eric Tomosunas serving as executive producers. Produced in association with GroupM Motion Entertainment with Richard Foster and Chet Fenster serving as executive producers. Tailiah Breon directs from a script by Rebecca Murga.
