Latest Update - Feb. 5, 2024
This is Part II of a two part pancocojams series about music that has been used for Prince Hall Affiliated Shriners' Camel Walk (dance) that is also known as "Riding".
This post presents a compilation of links to YouTube videos of PHA Shriners Camel Walks ("Riding") from 2015 through 2023. The titles of the record and their recording artist/s for each of the videos in this compilation are almost always given as part of the summary of those videos.
This compilation documents how the music for PHA Shriners Camel Walks changed from what appears to have been the "go to" (almost always used) record "White Horse" by the Danish duo Laid Back to various African American R&B/Hip Hop records including George Clinton's "Atomic Dog", Too Short's “Blow The Whistle", Drake- “Started From The Bottom", and Mystikal's Here I Go".

PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
The PHA Shriner's "Camel Walk" is also known as "Riding". That processional, circular movement is very similar to historically Black Greek letter fraternities and sororities synchronized movements that are known as "strolling".
Click https://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2020/10/black-greek-letter-fraternities.html for a 2020 pancocojams post that showcases several YouTube videos of historically Black Greek letter fraternities and sororities strolling.

For the cultural and historical record, please share comments in this post's discussion thread if you agree or disagree that "White Horse" was the "go to" record for PHA Shriners Camel Walks. If you agree that "White Horse" was the "go to" record for PHA Shriners Camel Walks, please add when this was the case and when it changed. Please remember to include demographic information, particularly your Masonic affiliation, if any. Thanks!

Thanks for visiting pancocojams.
Visitor comments are welcome.
It's important to emphasize that the PHA Shriners' Camel Walk is only supposed to be performed by men who are members of PHA Shriner Temples.
ReplyDeleteThe Daughter of Isis is the female auxiliary of the PHA Shriners. However, they aren't permitted to Camel Walk.
