Kashif first taught himself to play a $3 song flute at age seven and later the piano in the basement of his church.
At age 15, Kashif joined B. T. Express and performed on stages around the world.
He studied Islam and changed his name from Michael Jones to Kashif, which means discoverer and inventor.
He crafted his own distinctive sound and later signed with Arista Records enjoying success as a solo artist.
Together with Stevie Wonder, he was considered a pioneer in urban music thanks to his specific synthesizer technology approach and the introduction of MIDI in his production.
Send Me Your Love is the second studio album from Kashif. The album was released in 1984 on Arista Records. The album includes the hit singles "Baby Don't Break Your Baby's Heart", "Are You the Woman" and "Ooh Love".
Kashif enjoyed another big hit album in the mid-'80s with this second Arista album that featured Al Jarreau on the cut "Edgartown Groove," and landed him one Top 10 and another Top 30 R&B hit. It was his best release from a performance standpoint; his vocals had more vigor and spirit than at any time before or since, and he toned down the production, varied the arrangements, and created a much more interesting and multi-faceted presentation than anticipated.
In 1985 "Edgartown Groove" brought Kashif and Al Jarreau a Grammy Award nomination for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
