Nik Cohn (also written Nick Cohn) is a British rock journalist.

Established as the father of rock critics, with Awopbopaloobop Alopbamboom written at the age of 22 in the late 60s, he then has published articles, novels and music books regularly.

He wrote the 1975 New York Magazine article "Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night", which was the source material for the movie Saturday Night Fever. In the late 1990s, Cohn admitted that he had fabricated the story.

He is now a columnist for the Guardian.
