"Do the Ricky Bobby" is a song by American hip hop recording artist Brandon "B Hamp" Hampton, released as his debut single on March 15, 2008.
Hamp describes the inspiration for the song came from Will Ferrell's character in 2006 film Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.
The artist has since removed the amateur video from his channel, and has replaced it with a more professional production, part of which was shot at the Texas Motor Speedway.
In the October 2008 Entertainment Weekly interview,[2] B Hamp describes the dance motifs to include: Steering a race car one handed, Celebratory posing, and a wheelchairing motion.
The wheelchair motion is in reference to the scene in the movie when Ricky Bobby has a nervous breakdown and delusively believes he has become paraplegic.
