 Notes  
     Although not as well-known as other New York hip-hop acts of the
     early 80's, Staten Island's Force M.D.'s were a vital crew in the
     early history of street hip-hop and one of the first vocal groups to
     fuse doo wop-influenced harmonies with hip-hop beats. Originally a
     street troupe known as the LD's, the group sang and danced on
     Greenwich Village street corners and the Staten Island ferry. Its
     members included brothers Stevie D and Antoine TCD Lundy, their
     uncle Jesse Lee Daniels, and friends Trisco Pearson and Charles
     Mercury Nelson.
     The group hooked up with DJ Dr. Rock, and billing themselves as Dr.
     Rock & the MC's, began playing in local hip-hop venues. However, by
     the time the group signed to Tommy Boy in 1984 as the Force M.D.'s
     (M.D. standing for "musical diversity"), they had evolved into a
     more straightforward R&B vocal group, distinguished mostly by their
     street attitude. The M.D.'s had a string of R&B hits through the
     '80s, but their only pop hit was the Top Ten Jimmy Jam/Terry
     Lewis-penned ballad "Tender Love," which was featured in the movie
     Krush Groove. 1987 produced the group's first R&B number one, "Love
     Is a House," but their popular appeal began to ebb the following
     year.
     Mercury and Trisco left in 1990 and were replaced by Rodney Khalil
     Lundy and Shawn Waters. The group released the album Get Ready in
     1994 as several members worked with other artists as producers.
     Though Nelson, Lundy, and DJ Dr. Rock each died an early death
     (Nelson of a heart attack, Lundy of Lou Gehrig's disease), the group
     returned in 1998, signed to a contract thanks to fellow Staten
     Island natives Wu-Tang Clan. 2000's The Reunion, however, failed to
     chart, and while the group continued to play occasional live shows,
     they were once again touched by tragedy in 2016 when Trisco Pearson
     died following a battle with cancer. In 2017, a new lineup of the
     Force M.D.'s - Jesse Daniels, Stevie D. Lundy, and Rodney Khalil
     Lundy - appeared with a new album, Our Favorite Joints.
     Force M.D.'s fourth album "Step To Me" from 1990 featuring a guest spot by
     Craig G and production from Marley Marl, Monte Moir (The Time), Denzil
     Foster & Thomas McElroy (Tony Toni Tone, En Vogue), Wayne Brathwaite
     (Kashif), Donald D (Ice-T) and more. Enjoy!
