Love is a radio personality for urban adult contemporary station KISS 104.1 WALR-FM in Atlanta, Georgia.
Love is a pioneer female emcee, a two-time Grammy Award nominee, the first British female hip hop artist to hold that distinction.
Love moved to America, settling in New York City in March 1988.
She has been married twice and is a single parent.
She is of Jamaican descent.
Love also appears on the song titled "United" from Inner City's third album, Praise, and raps a response verse from the woman's perspective on a 1989 remix of the Fine Young Cannibals hit, "She Drives Me Crazy".
Love's debut album, Down to Earth, was released on 6 November 1990.
It spawned the singles "Monie in the Middle" (a track dealing with a woman's right to determine what she wants out of a relationship) and "It's a Shame (My Sister)" (which sampled the (Detroit) Spinners' "It's a Shame", written for the band by the US musician Stevie Wonder).
It also featured house-music vocalist and then-labelmate Ultra Naté.
The album reached No. 26 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
