Oi is a subgenre of punk rock that originated in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s. The music and its associated subculture had the goal of bringing together punks, skinheads, and other disaffected working-class youth..
Who created OI?
bands such as Sham 69 were around for years before the word Oi was used to describe their style of music. The word was first used as a name for the new genre in 1980, by journalist Garry Bushell. He took the name from the way the Cockney Rejects used "Oi" during live shows to introduce their songs..
A sociopolitical youth movement based in Great Britain, oi arose out of the punk and skinhead cultures in the late 1970s. Its audience was working class in background; more specifically, nonconformists who were alienated from politics and establishment mores.
