Worl-A-Girl is an American hip hop- and R&B-influenced reggae group, formed in 1991. Founding vocalists Charmaine (Charmaine DaCosta), Miss Linda (Linda Scott?), Sabrina (Sabrina Cohen?) and Sensi (Angela Wilks?)[1] released their first album in 1994. Charmaine left the group in 1995 to pursue a solo career as a gospel singer.

The group is perhaps best known for the single "Jamaican Bobsledding Chant" from the soundtrack for the movie, Cool Runnings.[2]
