Lisa.
Lisa Lisa
and her band Cult Jam were
one of the original American
freestyle music groups of the 1980s.
Cult Jam consisted of
guitarist/bassist Alex "Spanador"
Moseley and drummer/keyboardist Mike
Hughes. They were assembled and
produced by Full Force. The group
released their debut album Lisa
Lisa & Cult Jam with Full Force
in 1985. Their second album,
Spanish Fly, was a huge success
in 1987. It spawned two #1 pop hits,
"Head to Toe" and "Lost In Emotion",
both of which went gold and both of
which sported a retro Motown flavor
mixed with the Freestyle sound they
were known for. 1989's Straight
to the Sky was a moderate hit
that included the Top 30 pop/#3 R&B
single, "Little Jackie Wants to Be a
Star", as well as the club hits
"Just Git It Together" and "Go For
Yours." Their fourth and final
album, Straight Outta Hell's
Kitchen, was less of a
commercial success, though it did
include a hit with "Let the Beat Hit
'Em", which reached the pop Top 40
and was a #1 hit on both the R&B and
club charts. The group disbanded in
1991.
