"...Ready for It?" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her sixth studio album of Reputation (2017). The song was released for digital download as a promotional single on September 3, and impacted radio stations as the album's second single on September 17; an official remix by BloodPop was released on December 10. Written by Swift and producers Max Martin, Shellback, and Ali Payami, it is an electropop and industrial pop song with elements of dancehall and trap. The track has Swift rapping over heavy synthesizers, bass drops, and programmed drums.

Lyrically, it depicts a narrator finding a new lover using criminal imagery mentioning bank heist and ransom. The accompanying music video, directed by Joseph Kahn, features a dark, futuristic aesthetic and references sci-fi franchises. Upon release, critics praised the anthemic production of "...Ready for It?" but some felt it was generic and similar to other popular songs on contemporary radio. The single peaked within the top ten on charts and received multi-platinum certifications in Australia, Canada, and the United States.
