A Rio de Janeiro trio whose songs mix personal drama with political edges.
For a sense of their range, listen to 'Te Amar Foi Bom, Mas Te Esquecer Foi Melhor' and then 'Embrasadão'. They cover a lot of ground.
OIK writes songs that don't shy away from friction. Their track 'Tarada' sits at the top of their most-played list, and their lyrics have drawn criticism for being too politically pointed. They keep writing about social issues anyway.
The band put out their first album in 2017, followed by 'Olhos de Céu' in 2019 and 'Pedaço de Mim' in 2021. Their top songs include collaborations like 'Por Causa de Ontem' with MÃOLEE and the funk version of 'Surtada' with DJ Dollynho da Lapa.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
