"Wasted" is a song by American rapper Juice Wrld, featuring American rapper Lil Uzi Vert. It was released on July 10, 2018. It was then added to the former's debut studio album Goodbye & Good Riddance, which was released earlier in May 2018 with Uzi as the only feature of the album. It premiered on Apple Music's Beats 1. The video game series Grand Theft Auto is referenced in the song, as is its developers, Rockstar Games, as HotNewHipHop described the reference as "a charming play on the message that pops up when you die in Grand Theft Auto" games. Uzi Vert's verse is described as distorted, and stated by Rap-Up as a "rapid-fire verse" on which he references "molly, hakuna matata, and a dominatrix. The meaning of the song is stated as "Juice getting vulnerable about a partner who's trying to 'get closer to Satan' by talking to him 'in the Matrix'" and "tackling the duality of drug culture, one where users are aware of their own demons but keep coming back for one reason or another."The song is described as "melancholic, shoegaze-y and dispirited." It reflects on consuming drugs with girls who make Juice and Uzi sad. Compared to the musical style of American rapper Post Malone, it is noted for its "jaded and new age pop sound." The song consists of a "heavy trap beat".
