This is for you Dear Trisco! Hugs and Kisses to Heaven. You are Forever Loved and Missed. I can still hear your Beautiful Voice...Sing with the Precious Angels, YOU ARE NOW ONE OF THEM!!!😇😇😇
***NEW YORK — Trisco Pearson, a member of the pioneering rap/R&B group Force MDs, has lost his battle with Stage 4 cancer. The Staten Island, N.Y. native died on Friday, Sept. 16, 2016.
In 1984, the group — initially comprised of brothers Stevie D., Antoine “T.C.D.” Lundy, and Rodney “Khalil” Lundy, and their uncle Jessie Lee Daniel—signed a deal with Tommy Boy Records and released its debut album, Love Letters that same year. At this point, Pearson and Charles “Mercury” Nelson had also joined the group, rounding out the ever-evolving line-up.
They were some of the first to blend New Jack Swing, R&B, and classic Hip Hop into one, seamless concoction. With hits such as “Love is a House,” “Itchin’ For a Scratch,” and “Tender Love” (which appeared in the 1985 cult classic film Krush Groove), they quickly solidified their place in music history.
The Force MD’s lost two of the main group members. Nelson died from a heart attack in 1995, while Antoine Lundy died of Lou Gehrig’s disease in 1998. A former collaborator DJ Dr. Rock died of natural causes in 1996.
The surviving group members are Khalil Lundy, Stevie Lundy and Jesse Daniels.
