Oakland native and MTV personality Sway takes viewers on a guided journey into the culture that birthed "ghostriding the whip" while simultaneously exploring the political, social, and musical history of the controversial movement as well. Local hip-hop artists Keak Da Sneak, MC Hammer, Too $hort, and {E-40} all weigh in on the craze as the biggest names in hip-hop all come together to pay tribute to underground legend Mac Dre. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
