Caron Geary,[1] known by various stage names, is an English female raggamuffin toaster. She was the first white female reggae/dancehall MC.[1][5]
Growing up in Marylebone,[6] Geary lived adjacent to an after-hours party which blasted out reggae music;[6] as a result, Geary was exposed to reggae from a very young age. It is these experiences which inspired her to write the controversial song Everything Starts With An 'E' as part of E-Zee Possee, which was banned by the BBC because of its lyrics[7] and made #69 in the UK Singles Chart in 1989, leaving the chart after only one week;[8] however it was re-released less than a year later in March 1990 and climbed to #15 on the UK chart,[8] spending eight weeks in the chart.[8]
It is commonly held knowledge that Kinky's first appearance was on the Boy George song Kipsy. It isn't; in a 2013 interview, Kinky explained that her first appearance was on the dancehall cut Little Twitch song Kid Ralph[9], which talks about a 'legendary' homosexual figure in Jamaica's prison system[10].

Background [edit]
Kinky's first solo single, the Apollo 440 produced "Get Over It",[11] reached #95 on the UK Singles Chart.[12]
Kinky has been touring underground, occasionally providing vocals for other artists. In 2006, she founded the group "Cantankerous", under which the single "D-ska-sting" was released. This group lasted until 2010, when the group was disbanded and Kinky began performing under such names as "Feral aka MC Kinky".[2] and "FERALisKINKY"[13]
Artistry [edit]
Descriptions of Geary's sound have varied from a "bass driven, vitriolic sonic hybrid of grimy electronic ragga, manic house and punk rock"[5] to a "white female raggamuffin toaster".[14] Kinky has denounced these descriptions, saying "I can't be bothered with people who spend large amounts of time trying to place people and music into small and narrow categories. I do what comes naturally to me, and it usually has a combination of influences."[14]
