Raised is the third studio album by American country musician Hailey Whitters.

Heavily inspired by her Midwestern upbringing in Iowa, Whitters has writing credits on all the tracks on Raised, with the exception of "Everybody Oughta", and the album's instrumental intro track ("Ad Astra Per Alas Porci") and its reprise as the album closer.

[2] Whitters felt like her previous album, The Dream, drew largely from her experience in Nashville, Tennessee, but wanted to take things back to her roots with Raised and called it a "celebration of the heartland".

[2] She described the song "Heartland" from her previous album as being the "mustard seed" that led to her reminiscing on her hometown and childhood memories.

[2] "Ad Astra Per Alas Porci", the instrumental intro track, lends its name from a Latin phrase meaning "to the stars on the wings of a pig", which serves as an homage to Whitters' imprint Pigasus, a portmanteau of pig and Pegasus.
