In 2011, after winning several roles in other Disney projects such as Jonas, Wizards of Waverly Place, and Hannah Montana, McClain was cast as the lead character in the Disney Channel series A.N.T. Farm. In this series, her musical talent was combined with her acting talent. For the show, China Anne McClain recorded a cover of Taio Cruz’s Dynamite. She also sings the title song of the series, Exceptional.

Less than a week after the Dynamite video was released, it was viewed more than a million times. On June 14, 2011, China and her sisters – known as the McClain sisters – were signed to Hollywood Records. The A.N.T. Farm soundtrack was released on October 11, 2011, and includes China’s popular version of Dynamite by Taio Cruz. On September 28, 2011, it was released Calling All the Monsters and reached number 100 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts.

In 2013 it was announced that her show A.N.T. Farm will be discontinued after the third season. The same day it was also announced that she and her sisters had left Hollywood Records, a development that China itself described as “bittersweet” but saw as a chance to continue making music with her sisters.

The setback did not last long, however, as she decided to do the first edition of ABC’s Sing Your Face Off in 2014 and won the first season of the show. She also continued to perform on various television shows and in films such as the popular Disney film series “Descendants”, where she also lent her voice on the title album. In 2017 she was given a role in CW’s successful TV show “Black Lightning”.
