Singer-songwriter and producer Stevie B. was a freestyle pioneer in Miami, Florida in the late '80s, bursting into the music scene in 1987 with his smash hit "Party Your Body." Early in his career, Stevie B. garnered his first Top-40 hits with "I Wanna Be the One" and "In My Eyes," as well as the Top-10 single "Love Me for Life." In 1990, Stevie B. released one of his best-loved, platinum-selling albums, "Love & Emotion," including his No. 1 hit "Because I Love You (The Postman Song)" and Top-15 hit "I'll Be by Your Side."

Hailing from New York City, Lisa Lisa took the freestyle and pop world by storm in the mid-1980s as a member of the band Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam. The group was best known for their smash hits "Head to Toe," "Lost in Emotion," "Can You Feel the Beat" and more. Lisa Lisa has also released solo projects, including her 1994 album "LL77," which included hits "Skip to My Lu" and "When I Fell in Love." Aside from her musical career, Lisa Lisa is an actress who has starred on Nickelodeon's show "Taina." She has also appeared in numerous Broadway and off-Broadway shows.
