KMD

KMD (K.M.D., Kausing Much Damage, or A Positive Kause in a Much Damaged Society) was an American hip hop trio active from 1987 to 1994, during the golden age. The core of the group was composed of brothers Zev Love X (Daniel Dumile) and DJ Subroc (Dingilizwe Dumile). The group's original third member, Jade 1 (believed to later be known as Rodan), left before the group signed with Elektra Records, being replaced with Onyx the Birthstone Kid. The group dissolved in 1994 following the sudden death of DJ Subroc in 1993, the departure of Onyx and conflicts with Elektra that resulted in them being dropped from the label. KMD released two studio albums, Mr. Hood (1991) and Black Bastards; the latter of which was recorded in 1993 and not officially released until 2000. Zev Love X subsequently changed his moniker to MF Doom and achieved success as a solo artist. MF Doom attempted to revive the KMD name in the 2010s, releasing two new songs, "Sorcerers" and "True Lightyears", and announcing a comeback album in 2017, but no further updates or recordings surfaced before his death in October 2020.
