"Yo" is not a bad word. It is slang for "How are you doing?". It started out in the northeast United States where "Yo" or "Youse" is used instead of "you". Comedian Andrew Dice Clay promoted its use in his comedy act in the late 80s and early 90s. Today it is a more informal version (if that's possible) of "Hey" as in "Hi".
