Ghetto Rave

When you're walking down the street downtown and there are a bunch of police cars with their lights on at a crime scene. You run up with a bunch of friends by the cop cars and dance by the flashing lights.
Person #1: "Hey do see those cop cars, something bad must have gone down."
Person #2: "Dude! Let's go Ghetto Rave by the cars!"
Person #1: "Yeah ok...and I've got some crystal meth we can do!"
Person #2: "Dude are you stupid!? They're cop cars!!!"
Person #1: "Oh yeah...haha."

Ghetto-Posh

While walking around downtown Seattle, some friend and I saw a few window displays that could only be described as ghetto but pricey! Thus, I coined the term "ghetto-posh." Not quite classy, but not cheap or skanky either...

Ghetto-Posh: an item, event, person, or anything that is very pricey to purchase or put on, but is styled to be dirty, worn, trashy, or cheap.
My cousin threw a ghetto-posh pimp and hoe party at her 200-acre ranch.

That ripped, faded denim purse from Neiman's is ghetto-posh!!!

ghetto Chinese

Food from an urban Chinese takeout.

Characterized by fast, cheap, and sometimes good Chinese food. In dangerous parts, there may be inch thick plexiglass barricades separating kitchen and diner, with a turnstyle for exchanging food and money.

Properly pronounced: get'O Chi-nee; e.g., Chi-nee foo.
I'm sort of broke, and pretty hungry - I think I'll go to Lam's and pick up some ghetto Chinese.

ghetto-tint

The road dirt and cigarette smoke that forms on the inside of car windows, mostly noticed at night or when someone touches the window.

ghetto chic

capitalizing on poverty to sell music and clothes while ignoring the class antagonism that incites consumers' emotions to buy those commodities
You: yea son this young jeezy music is my shit, i be hustlin in the trap all day w my chains and ice, fuck the po and rich whities

Me: you's fetishizing the ghetto as fashionable when it is a really sad effect of racism and classism that we should struggle against rather than perpetuate through buying commodities white people get paid off of; fuckz dat ghetto chic
