TC the lead singer died from Lou garrets disease they went from getting mics turned off on them singing at Curtis high school on Friday nights...to making hits songs Look guy's I grow up with these Guy's on Staten Island NY and let me tell you something these cats could sing and step...and got many of draws...case closed!
They came out trying to be too much like New Edition but they came with the funk with other hits like Tender Love, Touch And Go, Here I Go Again and Tears!
Jessie D is back and going solo his two new songs Break of Dawn and Love At first sight which is on youtube and sold at any online retail store such as itunes
I can't believe these idiotic, superficial comments about someone's teeth!!! Get over yourselves and enjoy the damn song!!!!! By the way, that man's dead, how do you feel?
why in the world did they sorround them by all these white poeple . i guess this is when they tried to cross them over even more after tender love. sad the guys probably had no say so.
Actually two guys singing in the background died which are TCD and Mercury (he died of a Heart Attack at age 30). Their DJ (who was never in their videos or performances....except for New York Hot Tracks in 1984), Doc Rock I think, died of unknowned causes. Force MD's should get on the next season of TVOne's Unsung along with The Sylvers, O'Bryan, Carrie Lucas, Con Funk Shun, Cherrelle, Alexandeer O'Neal, The Time, Shirley Murdock, and Anita Baker.
Stevie D said on an interview why TCD teeth was missing. while they were celebrating with family members on making it in the music industry, TC and a fellow relative were playing karate with each other and the relative accidentally kicked TC in the mouth so his tooth popped out. But when they put on Itchin For A Scratch he got his tooth back. This song showcased Jessie D's ability as a lead singer and his riffs from Michael Jackson. That nigga is like a ghetto Michael Jackson.
these dudes gave new edition swag (i dont like that word as much) when they did their r&b hip hop combo style. both groups are my favorite groups. they paved the way for so many groups to come along. i think of Force Mds as the big brothers and New Edition as the little brothers. Both groups should tour together again like they did back in the days to show these lil niggas how to sing, dance, rap, and be professional at the same damn time.
@soulmziklova you are so right you know some people just do not know, i remember when there original name was the Force Five MC's the record company had them change their name, i seen them at jams all around the N.Y.C. way before they really made it big, much much talent then people knew. And HELL YEAH they are much better Dancers then NEW EDITION BY FAR!!
The Force MD's were better singers (although New Edition did step it up vocally on the Heartbreak album). TCD and Trisco could outsing everyone in New Edition except Johnny. Still New Edition are better dancers than the Force MDs.

Can someone please post the Force MD's slow jam "Your Love Drives Me Crazy" from the Touch and Go album??? Trust me, that is the BEST demonsration of TCD's vocal talents.
Yo, we used 2 dispute who the lead singer was, I thought it was the guy singing on this video but I think he went solo, but ther other guy that must have took the lead after he left sound just like him I guess.. Never seen footage b4 until now... Thanx
Hold up ....did that dude have some missing teeth? He did. Daaaaaang who does that especially for a music video. He would have got no camera time if I was in this group lol
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow they sold out in this shitty video. that nigga with the fucked up teeth anit gettin no girl. this cheesy pop cocoa krispy bullshit. and they would throw a corny rap in this. WOW!
They were in England when filming this video (cheaper to film in that country). Thats no excuse because there are some fine English women that they could have put in the video, but blame the producer! :(
no, michael a fan of them, study and take a long look, NYC cats youngster of early 70's croon - doo - wop - sweet soul, check the hair way it is pressed and the transpose of crescendo harmonies at end of song
why it was shelved cuz it was too soul too true, i remember that as a DJ, allbad but time tells, Force MD's, another reason why Cali dig NYC so much then
in 1985/86 if u were black and had a members only jacket and a minifro/jerrycurl and could sing u got the ladies even if ur teeth looked like train hit em you were fine
Can someone PLEASE tell me what kind of pants she has on at 1:59? I would have thought parachuete but they look alot smaller than those. lol i'm actually thinking about getting some.
The lead singer of this song seems like a huge michael jackson fan the way he moves and sings.he's imitating Mike all the way. Surprised no one could spot that yet.
I remember seeing them in concert here in Birmingham, Al. in the mid 80's along with U.T.F.O and Full Force on the Fresh Fest tour and man they tore the house down . Those were the days!!! I really miss these guys I have alot of good memories attached to their music .
yeah man, after they let B ham they came down to mobile and wreck shop here!! i need to get a loan and get these guy's on a tour called FRESHFEST:RESURR ECTION ! WHAT DO YOU THINK, BRING BACK REAL HIPHOP!
There were talking to some black girls in this video too. Remember that they were in England filming this video in 1984 (yes, Force MD's were also famous in England) and the part they were in in that country probaly did'nt have many black people.
They were touring in England at the time and filming music videos over there was cheap especially when Tommy Boy's cheap asses did'nt make videos for their first two hit singles, "Let Me Love You" and "Tears!" The latter would've made #1 on the R&B charts instead of #8 if it had a music video.
Holy ****. I haven't seen or heard this in ages. Used ot love Force M.D.s. First heard of them when they opened for New Edition on the All 4 Love tour.
