Love Changes

Love Changes is the fourth studio album by American singer Kashif. It was released by Arista Records in 1987. The album was digitally remastered in 2012 by Funky Town Grooves and included six bonus tracks.

Background
The album includes the hit singles "Love Changes" with Meli'sa Morgan, "Love Me All Over", and "Loving You Only". Vocal trio Exposé provided most backing vocals; the track "Fifty Ways (To Fall in Love)" featured background vocals performed by Whitney Houston. The song "Love Changes" was originally sung by R&B group Mother's Finest in 1978, and covered again in 2005 by R&B artist Jamie Foxx, and hip hop artist Mary J. Blige.

Critical reception
Ron Wynn wrote in his retrospective review for AllMusic: "Kashif went the duet route on this late '80s release, working with both Dionne Warwick and Meli'sa Morgan and doing relatively well both times [...] The album was otherwise as slick and overproduced as ever, and his singing went back to the subdued patterns of earlier works."
