Caliber was born Daniel Salvador on May 2nd, 1980 in Los Angeles, CA to Mexican immigrants. His parents migrated to the United States in the 1960’s, hoping to better their families situation. Caliber was the 5th child out of 5, being the youngest, Caliber grew up around brothers and uncles involved in the gang infested streets of the City of Angeles.
Although not involved deep in the life of a Gangster, it was all around him. He was forced to mature at an early age when his Girlfriend became pregnant with their first of four children. He dropped out of school during the start of the 10th grade and tried getting a job, but when he found out no one was quick to hire a 15 year old drop out, he felt he had no other but to start selling rock to try to support his live in Girlfriend at the time.
Music was a major part of his life, from West Coast Rap to Oldies, to even Classic Rock. Music was and still is a major influence in his life. He believes in expressing himself through his music. After many years of struggling to break into the music industry, Caliber managed to open up for some of the biggest names in Hip Hop. Too Short, E-40, Booya T.R.I.B.E., Chingy, Digital Underground, 2 Live Crew, Jayo Felony and many more. He also has a debut album which is coming out October 25th under Most High Records/Free Angency. Caliber hopes to one day work with Hip Hop Legend Dr. Dre and drop a record with the new Compton sensation The Game.
Caliber has been blessed to have West Side Connection affiliated veterans AllFrumThaI faetured on one of his songs called “Party Tonite.” Peep that:
Also, Caliber has a song with up and coming artist, Dutch of F.I.L.T.H.E.E. Immigrants, a group that we first brought to you last year here on DubCNN, entitled “Ridin’ On.” Check that out:
