Kingston, Jamaica // July 8, 2020
Born
Kevin Donaldson, California
Clive grew
up in
Waterford, St Catherine, Jamaica. The original sound system DJ has
turned his sights towards producing music that he has been spinning
on the turntables. Initially, his musical journey began with him
playing disco music to impress girls at a house party when he was
just 12 years old.
In
1983, California
Clive
started working for Sir G's sound called Star Force International,
before he moved on to Heat Force Sound in 1986. By early 1988, Squad
1 Sound from St Johns Road, in Spanish Town, Saint Catherine, where
the sound clashes and juggling started, hired him to represent their
sound system. After migrating in 1991, Raw Deal Sound in Baltimore,
Maryland was his new employer and here he began making his name in
the US market.
California
Clive
retired from playing music, from 1998 until 2008 when he joined Wild
Out Radio as a radio disc jock before going back to the dance hall
arena in 2009 by building his own sound system called the Wild Out
Squad. However, in 2012, the decision was made to walk away and leave
that sound system to friends and going solo as DJ Cali Clive Di
Juggla. Being booked in over 16 Different states in America and 11
different countries around the world put California
Clive
on the forefront of the sound system business in the United States.
He then started working at Real Explosion Radio in 2017 and continues
to play solo in the dance hall to this day. The disc jock is also a
promoter and keeps parties around the Baltimore Dancehall circuit.
It
was always his
dream
to sing a song or to produce music but soon realized that singing was
not his forte. Hence, California
Clive
stuck to just producing it and released his first production called
Gangsta
Bounce Riddim
in 2017. Since then, he has learned the business, built his own
studio and became the proud owner of his own label, Cali
Ca$h Records.
California
Clive
made the promise to produce and present only great music to the
world. Despite the global pandemic caused in 2020, he managed to
create greatness with his latest project, the Money
Law Riddim.
The now released compilation features several known and new

says that 95% of the songs on this riddim will have everyone doing
just that, while learning the rules of Money
Law.
