"Armed and Dangerous" is a song by American rapper Juice Wrld, released as a single on October 15, 2018.[1] The music video for the song was released in October, however was taken down and re-released on November 9 of the same year due to Lyrical Lemonade not having proper licensing rights to the song.[2] The track was later included as part of a Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, YouTube Music and Pandora exclusive reissue of Juice Wrld’s debut studio album Goodbye & Good Riddance, on December 10, 2018. The track was not included on the May 28, 2021, reissue of the album, commemorating the third anniversary of the project.

Critical reception

[edit]

HotNewHipHop stat the track "recalls the vibe" of Juice Wrld's debut album Goodbye & Good Riddance and "would fit in nicely alongside his more party-friendly joints as he sings about how he has no need to hire a bodyguard since he's got the stick on him at all times".[3] XXL said "Armed and Dangerous" "finds Juice getting back in his bag", calling it a "free associative" track "where the melodically inclined artist spits about his come-up while firing off some flexes and self-aware bars".[4]
