She, along with Mic Murphy of the System, were members of a short-lived band from New York called the Jack Sass Band (also known as Sass) in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The band was known for its songs “Much Too Much” and “Save My Life.” La La went on to singing backup vocals and songwriting during the 1980s. She has written songs for Lillo Thomas, Melba Moore, Glenn Jones, Stephanie Mills, Whitney Houston, and the late Carl Anderson, and she worked with other R&B producers such as Kashif.
