Ratking “Canal”

Ratking had an active year in 2013, playing alongside acts such as King Krule, Trash Talk, GZA and Death Grips. The New York-based group is entering the New Year with their debut album So It Goes. Engineered by the great Young Guru, the album puts forth their balance of raw energy and vintage hip-hop. For a taste, here’s their first single “Canal” that finds frontman Wiki rapping a flurry of head-nod worthy rhymes.

You can check out the single above and pre-order So It Goes here. If you haven’t seen Ratking live yet, here’s a list of their upcoming tour dates below.
