Founder of the SBU (South Bay Union); groups such as White Cloudz and Big Gamezmen, and Who has worked with legends like Roger Troutman, San Jose rappers Assassin, Ray Dogg, Sicc Jay Tona, Menlo Park/EPA rap legend Chunk to name a few. China McCloud has been putting it down for 16 years in the independent rap game.
The year is 2000 a young DJ an MC step in to a studio for the 1st time. They’re greeted by the man they came to see, front man for BGM The hit maker from their home town producer/ rapper and San Jose icon. China McCloud opens his home his eyes slanted and red as they come (that’s why they call him China). China’s Cabinet is open for business.
My first encounter with China back in 2000 was game laced to say the least. We paid for studio time plus his engineering expertise. Little did we know what exactly was in store. Two young artist eager to learn as much as he was willing to dish out. He brought years of shows, collaborations, beat making to every session. Within a few sessions he extended his hand to my friend, producer and DJ; DJ Quest (Konquest now) to join the SBU as the official DJ. To give an up and comer an opportunity to showcase his talent in front of the world and to scratch and mix on a lot of his CD’s that’s something rare in these days. But China knows talent when he see’s it and has the ear and talent to produce hot beats and drop albums that will forever cement his status in South Bay history. So when you mention San Jose Rap, China’s name will forever be there with the respected OG’s that came before us and put it down!
