Screwball is an American hip hop quartet from New York City, composed of rappers Hostyle, KL, Blaq Poet and Solo. The group has released two studio albums, Y2K: The Album in 1999 and Loyalty in 2001, and a compilation album Screwed Up in 2004.

Their debut Tommy Boy Records-released album Y2K was a minor success, reaching number 50 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It featured contributions from Godfather Don, Big Noyd, Capone, Cormega, MC Shan, Mobb Deep, Nature, Pete Rock and Marley Marl among others, and yielded two charted singles: Mike Heron-produced "H-O-S-T-Y-L-E" and DJ Premier-produced "F.A.Y.B.A.N. (Fuck All You Bitch Ass Niggas)". Screwball's follow-up album, Landspeed Records-released Loyalty, gained more success than its preceder, peaking at number 185 on the US Billboard 200 and number 44 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. It featured contributions from Ayatollah, Kool G Rap, N.O.R.E., Tragedy Khadafi, The Beatnuts, Cormega, Godfather Don and Nature among others. Its lead single, Lee Stone-produced "Torture" featured M.O.P., became the group's highest charted single with #78 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and #2 on the Hot Rap Songs. All the group members, along with Noyd, R.A. the Rugged Man and their frequent collaborator Godfather Don, appeared on Hostyle's debut solo album One Eyed Maniac, released on June 29, 2004 via Hydra Entertainment. In July 2004, the group released a compilation of new and old material, Screwed Up, which was named after their debut single and is considered their final project to date. KL died in 2008 of an asthma attack and Hostyle died in 2020.
