The Force M.D.'s, an American R&B vocal group hailing from Staten Island, New York, found their unique intersection between doo-wop and hip-hop in the early 1980s. Their journey began as a street outfit named the L.D.s, where their blend of harmonious vocals and urban flair caught the attention of music lovers and industry insiders alike. Transforming into the Force M.D.'s, they solidified their place in music history with a series of hits that bridged the gap between old-school soul and the burgeoning hip-hop scene.

They are perhaps best known for their 1985 ballad "Tender Love," a song that showcased their softer side and earned them widespread acclaim, embodying the quintessential 80s slow jam and gaining prominence through its inclusion in the film "Krush Groove." Over the years, the Force M.D.'s adapted to the changing times, incorporating more contemporary sounds into their music while maintaining their signature harmonies. Despite facing personal tragedies and changes in the lineup, the group persisted, continuously performing and releasing new music that honored their enduring legacy. With recent releases like "Tender Love (The Remixes)" and "Our Favorite Joints," the Force M.D.'s prove their timeless appeal and enduring influence in the world of R&B and beyond.
