Antoine "T.C.D." Lundy (February 3, 1963 – January 21, 1998) was a member and singer of the contemporary R&B group Force MDs, whose other members included his brother Stevie D, their uncle Jesse Lee Daniels, and friends Trisco Pearson and Charles "Mercury" Nelson. The group had a string of R&B hits through the 1980s, scoring a top-ten pop hit was the slow jam "Tender Love," which was featured in the 1985 film Krush Groove. The group also appeared in the hip hop-inspired motion picture Rappin' (1985). 1987 produced the group's first R&B #1, "Love is a House".
By the mid-1980s, T.C.D. had emerged as one of the preeminent lead vocalists of the group.[2] He is featured as the lead singer on many of the band's most successful hit singles, including both "Tender Love" and "Love is a House." In addition, T.C.D. co-wrote many of the band's songs.
Lundy died of Lou Gehrig's disease in 1998, after having endured the condition for two years.[3]
