    Cockney slang for hey. Also a british style of music, named so after the band Cockney Rejects who first used it in their lyrics, although Sham 69 was the first Oi! band. (not correct without an exclamation mark!)

        A Sub-Genre of punk rock catered to skinheads, also taking influence from ska and two-tone. Deriving from the Greek Word Polloi, which means working people. It is also used in British and Austrailian slang.

          1. A word used by english ppl like myself when trying to attract the attention of someone. 2. also can be used in a different way, if some one was to bump into you in the street, youd turn around and say oi!

          it doesnt really mean hello tho.

              Oi! is a music, as well as a slang to get someones attention.
              (lower class brats, sham 69, cockney rejects, etc.)
