  • Kashif Saleem (rodným jménem Michael Jones, 26. prosince 1959 – 25. září 2016), známý pouze jako Kashif, byl americký hudebník, multiinstrumentalista, zpěvák, hudební skladatel a producent. Hudební talent se u něj projevil v sedmi letech, kdy se naučil ve sklepě kostela, který navštěvoval, hrát píseň na flétnu a později také na piano. V 70. letech se stal členem funkové hudební skupiny a s ní koncertoval po celém světě. Během života studoval islám, ze kterého přejal své nové jméno Kashif Saleem, což znamená vynálezce nebo objevitel. V průběhu kariéry si vytvořil osobitý hudební projev a později se stal úspěšným sólovým zpěvákem pod smlouvou hudebního vydavatelství Arista Records. (cs)
