MD's stands for "Musical Diversity'. The decade of the 80s gave us the last era of true R & B groups and artist who sang what used to be called "Soul Music". There were recording artist who could actually sing whether in the studio or live in concert. Around 1986 one of the last of these groups The Force M. D.'s emerged out of Staten Island, N.Y. with the song "Tears". In 1987 "Tender Love", a song also included on the "Krush Grove" soundtrack and "Love Is A House", ensured them a place in music history as one of the last groups to successfully fuse Do-Wop and R & B. Although there were a few like R. Kelly who continued to keep R & B alive, in reality, R & B music died in the 90's and was buried by the cross-over general market success of Rap and Hip-Hop music. The Force M. D.s who were discovered while they were actually singing for their supper on the Staten Island Ferry for tips. They were extremely talented. Every member of the group could actually sing and their harmony was tight. 4 of the original 5 members are now deceased.

Back in the day there was a thing called 'biting' that referred to stealing another person's style, moves, music, etc. When the West Coast gangster rap prevailed a lot of the old beats were 'used'/sampled from other songs and it became a typical theme. Now there is a big copywrite problem and everybody's granny is being taken to court. That's why the originals have so much weight. Also, the originals had a certain kind of meaning behind the song as well. Things have become twisted-a lot. And it has changed/damaged our society and way of life a lot as well. ⭐
