Growing up in San Diego, he came across all types of folks who had some type of influence over him.

He specializes in alto sax and also plays soprano, tenor, and baritone saxophones, as well as bass clarinet and flute. He currently studies with Detroit legend and Grammy Award–winning musician/producer Kamau Kenyatta, and has also studied with renowned saxophonist Charles McPherson. Kahlil is a featured player in the Young Lions Jazz Conservatory under the directorship of renowned trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos.
