At 16, Calliste Jr. used a $50.00 Casio keyboard (combo calculator) to teach himself how to play keyboard by ear. After self-producing Al-Naafiysh, Calliste Jr. got his big break at Tommy Boy Records when a DJ by the name of Harold McGuire (professionally known as Whiz Kid) introduced Calliste Jr. to then Tommy Boy Records Vice President Monica Lynch.
According to Kellman, 2007, "Hashim was the work of Jerry Calliste Jr. He became involved with music as a teenager; he was DJ'ing at the age of 12, and in the early '80s, while still a teenager, he promoted parties. His graffiti work on a banner for Tommy Boy Records (and DJ Whiz Kid) helped him attain a part-time gig doing custodial work at that label's offices." Having been raised a Catholic, he converted to Islam in 1982 and adopted Hashim, which means "Decisive" in Arabic, as his Muslim name.[1] In 1983, Calliste Jr. became Cutting Records first recording artists and the company's vice president. ""Al-Naafiysh (The Soul)" became Cutting's first release in November 1983, and Calliste became the label's vice president ."
"Calliste eventually left Cutting and continued working as a promoter. He also went on to start Bassmint Music, an online label and shop based in Ohio ." Calliste Jr. is currently the owner of Hashim Music a music publishing company and long-time member of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). Since 2001, Calliste Jr. is president and CEO of both Bassmint Music and Caldella Music an online independent record label and music publishing company respectively .
