Ghost riding

Ghost riding, frequently used in the context of "ghost riding the whip" (a "whip" being a vehicle) or simply ghostin', is when a person exits their moving vehicle, and dances beside and around it. Ghost riding is also another term used for car surfing, and the term is also occasionally used to describe a moving vehicle with no occupant, such as when a car without the hand brake applied starts to roll down an incline.〔(Flambosting the hyphy nation ). Steve Jones, USAToday.com. April 13, 2006. Last accessed January 6, 2007.〕 Ghostin' originated on the west coast of the United States, primarily in California. It gets its name from the fact that while the driver is dancing beside the moving vehicle, it appears that the vehicle is being driven by an invisible driver.
==Background==
Ghost riding is an activity that has been practiced in the Bay Area for years during what are called sideshows. The popularization of ''ghost riding'' is a byproduct of popular Bay Area music, and the hyphy subculture in general.
Ghost riding is performed by exiting an automobile while it is left in gear. The automobile's engine runs at idle speed, slowly propelling the car forward.
==In pop culture==
*The term "ghost ride the whip" received nationwide exposure in E-40's 2006 song "Tell Me When to Go".〔(Ghost-riding: Another bad idea from California ). Paul Farhi, Washington Post. January 8, 2007. Last accessed January 10, 2007.〕
*Oakland rapper Mistah F.A.B.'s hit song "Ghost Ride It" further popularized it. A single from the unreleased studio album ''Da Yellow Bus Rydah'' by Bay Area rapper Mistah F.A.B., and produced by Sean T., the song references actor Patrick Swayze, lead star in the 1990 film ''Ghost'',〔Farhi, Paul. ("Ghost-Riding: Brake-Dancing With Zip Under the Hood" ), ''The Washington Post'', December 27, 2006, p. C01. Accessed October 18, 2007.〕 sparking internet references to ghost riding as "going (Patrick) Swayze". While Mistah F.A.B's studio album remains unreleased, the song itself (written in 2006) was released on a compilation album entitled "Hyphy Hitz", released as a digital download (iTunes) on September 18, 2009. The song runs 3:52, and is owned by the Faeva Afta Entertainment/Thizz Entertainment/Atlantic label. The song imitates the theme song of ''Ghostbusters''.
*MTV asked that Mistah F.A.B's video be edited after people were reported killed while ghost riding. (The video explains what "hyphy" and "ghost riding" are.) MTV stopped playing it after Columbia Pictures protested the unlicensed use of their ''Ghostbusters'' logo.
*"Ghostride the Whip" is a featured song on Family Force 5's album ''Dance or Die with a Vengeance''.
*Ghost riding is a minigame in the hip-hop-culture-centered video game ''Pimp My Ride''.〔(''Pimp My Ride GameSpot Review'' ); December 18, 2006 article; accessed January 6, 2007.〕
