Oi! is a unique genre within punk rock, and the book "What Have We Got?" delves into its origins, evolution, and ongoing debate. Drawing on extensive interviews with bands like Sham 69, Angelic Upstarts, Cockney Rejects, Crown Court, Lions Law, and The Templars, Simon Spence explores the genesis of Oi! and its initial noble intentions. However, it eventually fell into disrepute due to its association with the far-right. Despite this, Oi! remains vibrant and popular, with a growing and formidable audience in the United States, Europe, Asia, South America, and the United Kingdom. The book also discusses how Oi! has shed its past associations and evolved into a more inclusive and diverse musical movement.
