Background[edit]
Dawn said that the split was amicable. Following the disbanding of Dirty Money, Diddy told her that she would have to wait a year or two to release a solo project if she stuck around, but after requesting a release, he granted it. 'It was a choice and I needed to go where the best place was for me,' said Dawn. 'As an artist, you can't wait two years. People forget about you in three seconds, so you have to grind like no other to stay relevant. He was gracious enough to say, 'I'll let you do that.' Labels don't do that. They'll shelve you. [..] I was so thankful that he didn't do what everybody said he was gonna do. He was like, 'You gave me six years, so here's your chance.'[2]
In an interview Richard said 'You're gonna hear R&B taken to a whole 'nother level.' She worked with Druski on nine of the EP's 10 tracks.[2] The EP serves as a prelude to her album Goldenheart. Richard released several songs before the anticipated release date ('Change', 'Black Lipstick', 'Fly', and the bass-driven 'Bombs') though 'Fly' is not on the final track listing. This EP serves as an opening to the sound of Goldenheart. Dawn Richard presented Armor On at a listening session in Beverly Hills on March 21, 2012.[2] In an interview Richard spoke on her feelings about Armor On, saying 'We are pushing the limits. [..] R&B is really linear and it's not a bad thing. I just think being with Danity Kane and being with Dirty Money, I've experienced so many things sonically and lyrically that I want ya'll to be moved. It's time for something a little bit more refreshing. I want to be that person for you guys.'[3]

Dawn Richard of Danity Kane and Diddy Dirty Money follows her 2011 mixtape A Tell Tale Heart with this independently released set, a 36-minute EP produced almost exclusively by collaborator Druski. These ten tracks are more refined than Richard's mixtape and should appeal to fans of Diddy Dirty Money's Last Train to Paris who are open to hearing material that is more personal and almost as sonicallly expansive.
