Ratking Release New Video, Announce Tour With Run the Jewels

Since it dropped in April, we’ve been big fans of Ratking’s album So It Goes. You’ll recall, we even said it has “redefined NYC hip-hop” and we certainly, after many more listens over these last few months, stick by that. To our minds, it’s a frontrunner for NYC album of the year, as well as one of the most impressive hip-hop albums we’ve heard in a long while. Now, the Ratking three — Wiki, Hak, and Sporting Life — have dropped the video for the moody title track, So It Goes, and have announced the dates of their big tour with El-P and Killer Mike’s Run the Jewels. Both are after the jump.
