George Carroll (born 1977) age 37, better known as Slaine, is an Irish-American hip hop MC and actor. He is best known for his work in the groups Special Teamz (with Edo G, Jaysaun and DJ Jayceeoh) and La Coka Nostra (with Danny Boy, Ill Bill, DJ Lethal and formerly Everlast and Big Left).

His controversial content and raspy delivery has made him both loved and hated, and his excellent word play and song making ability have made him a fast rising star. One third of the supergroup Special Teamz, Slaine represents a lifestyle and mentality seldom before scene in the genre of hip hop, and his honesty about his own sick thoughts and addictions go from manic and energetic, to dark and disturbing in a matter of seconds. The South Boston mc wreaks of street credibility and aggression and is certainly earning a loyal fanbase at a fast rate.
