The LaFace trio was signed in 1992 and released three albums that put them as the top-selling female R&B group of all times. With Lisa in dire straits, the star journeyed to Honduras for healing. Now practicing yoga, astrology and numerology, Lisa was spent on the intent of making personal changes and focusing on self. As more and more revelations were being made available to the young starlet, she believed that time was cautiously plotting its course, with her as it’s main lead.

An unsuspecting fear crept in. Restlessness affected the group, whom Lisa was intent on influencing change. Worst being, the night before her passing, Lopes and a van full of friends of family, hit and ultimately killed a young Honduran child.

 …The last name of the boy was Lopes…

The last ten minutes of the documentary even shows footage of Lisa losing control of the car that she was driving, which ultimately killed her. Despite her untimely death, Lisa’s story lives on within the capture reel of film used and in the hearts of the millions of fans that still sing her praises.

The dreamer who always reached for the stars gives of herself, always present, yet never fully knowing. It is still a tragedy that someone so young, so bright, would burn out. But that’s what supernova’s do.
