Caron Liza Geary (born 15 October 1963 in Paddington, London), known by various stage names, is an English female raggamuffin toaster. She was the world's first white female reggae/dancehall MC, and the first dancehall MC ever, to chat reggae-inspired lyrics over house music.
According to Geary, her first recorded track was over the dub version of "Kid Ralph", a dancehall track by Little Twitch. The song, unbeknown to her, spoke about a "legendary" homosexual figure in Jamaica's prison system. Her track was called "Reggae gone Kinky" and the dubplate was recorded at Music House in Finsbury Park. She has subsequently worked as a solo artist and with other musicians, including Erasure and Boy George, who described her music as "the dirtiest 'slackest' reggae I'd heard since the seventies".
