About NYOIL

  • NYOIL (pronounced N-Y Oil) (born April 29, 1971) is an American emcee from Staten Island, New York City.
  • His name was formerly an acronym for New York's Original International Lover.
  • He has been rapping since he was 12.
  • In 1991, as Kool Kim, he released the first of two albums with Haas G as the group the U.M.C.'s.
  • But around the same time that Nas released Hip Hop Is Dead, NYOIL put a video up on MySpace and YouTube for his song "Y'All Should All Get Lynched", which was produced by DJ Slice of The Cr8Kickers.
  • The track calls for the lynching of a number of major-label rappers, and the video features pictures of current rap stars such as 50 Cent and Three 6 Mafia coupled with images of lynchings, slavery, and minstrelsy.
  • The video was banned from YouTube after less than 48 hours, and attracted a large amount of media attention for its controversial content.
  • NYOIL did not give much biographical detail, refusing even to be photographed without his sunglasses on.
  • NYOIL released his solo debut full-length album, HoodTREASON, on June 26, 2007.
  • Singles from the album include "Y'All Should All Get Lynched", "Purrrfect Beat", and "Hip Hop Ya Don't Stop".
  • HoodTREASON was reissued by Babygrande Records in 2008.
  • NYOIL has also received acclaim for his live shows.
