BiographyE-Zee Possee were an English electronic music group, active between 1989 and 1991, made up of vocalists and musicians, and led by MC Kinky. She was a rapper and friend of Boy George, and E-Zee Possee were promoted by George's label, More Protein.

The first single by E-Zee Possee was co-written by MC Kinky, (Boy George writing as) Angela Dust and Simon Rogers, along with Jeremy Healy, co-producer of the track. "Everything Starts With an 'E'", E-Zee Possee's biggest chart success, was originally released in 1989, and peaked at #69 in the UK Singles Chart, leaving the chart after only one week. However, the single was re-released less than a year later, in 1990 and climbed to #15 on the UK chart. It remained in the chart for eight weeks, making it the longest chart running for the band. The possee released an album in 1992, containing all these singles, entitled "The Bone Dance".

"Everything Starts With an 'E'" was a controversial track due to its lyrics, explicitly dealing with drugs. MC Kinky noted that the song was banned by BBC Radio 1 when it was released because of the lyrics.
