Raking is a hip-hop collective that emerged out of New York City in the early 2010s, when its four members, Patrick "Wiki" Morales, MC Hak, Sporting Life and Ramon, were in their late teenage years. The group began working on tracks in 2011 under the moniker Wiki, and eventually began to earn online fame with the grimy, chaotic sound of its bedroom productions. After adopting Ratking as its chosen name, the collective spread its music around New York City with live shows, earning a local following as well as a deal with Hot Charity records, who released Ratking's debut EP, Wiki93, in 2012.
