lean like a cholo 

the name of a cool song that plays alot in southern California. While some call the song degrading and racist it is still fun to dance to. When you lean like a cholo

1. Put your elbows out and fists together.
2. Tilt your body back and forth from side to side.
3. You are now leaning like a cholo.
At the club I like to lean like a cholo while waiting for the bartender to get me my tecate.

lean like a cholo 

A favorite body position of latin gangstas and others in which one shoulder is purposefully lower than the other. This position signifies nonchalance and relaxation and is intended to enhance sexual attraction.
I lean like a cholo whilst drivin my hoop-d, flippin switches, smoking blunts, and gettin some head.

Lean Like A Cholo 

A Latino cholo's humoristic stance to represent the cholo lifestyle. It is a side to side lean, waaaay back...with elbows up of coarse. It is the truest form of showing a 'laid back' cholo. It is not meant to be taken seriously.
1) A dance that symbolizes the cholo 'stance.
2) A song and video by Kilo that made the phrase popular world wide.
3) Humorist slang describing a cholo's demeanor.
The song is meant in fun and in jest. I grew up in East LA, and even though I was familiar with cholo's, and was friends with the original Zuit Suiter, it was not until I was playing the bartender on the set of Lean Like A Cholo, and saw how the 'lean' or 'dance' was really done; that I saw they were just having fun. The creator of the song (Kilo) was really poking fun, and seeing the lighter side to the cholo lifestyle. A comedy. It is not meant to be taken seriously. All the copy-caters (including Lean Like A Chola) was simply paying tribute, or doing a parody of the song in it's honor. Similar to Saturday Night Live.

Study Like a Cholo

Pretty much the same as saying "I need to study really bad".

It is usually used when there is a ton of work to be done in little or not enough time frequently due to procrastination.

"Yo man I have 3 tests tomorrow and I don't know shit, I gotta study like a cholo."
