Cath Coffey (born Catherine Muthomi Coffey) is one of the earliest members of British rap band Stereo MCs.[1] The single "Elevate My Mind", off the Stereo MCs album Supernatural, in which Coffey was the backing vocalist, was the first British rap single to reach the US pop charts.
After the release of their album Supernatural, the Stereo MCs released their critically acclaimed album Connected in 1992, on which Coffey is featured on the popular tracks "Connected", "Ground Level" and "Step It Up".
Coffey was featured on the second album by Tricky, Nearly God, released in 1996, and has since gone on to have Tricky produce her solo album Mind the Gap, released only in Japan in 1997. The album released two tracks in the UK, "Tell Me" and "Say What You Say".
Cath Coffey released a single entitled "Wild World" for the Stereo MCs issue of the 2000 DJ mix album DJ Kicks.
