Ariana Grande & Victoria Monet Monopoly review


Monopoly (stylized in all caps) is a song by singers Ariana Grande and Victoria Monet that was released on April 1, 2019 through Republic Records. It was written by Grande, Monet, Charles Anderson, Michael Foster and Tim Suby. The production was handled by Social House and Suby themselves. The music video was filmed on March 30 at the Mohegan Sun in the hours leading up to a concert scheduled that night. The video was directed by Alfredo Flores and Ricky Alvarez.

Monopoly is a trap-pop song that talks about friendship, freedom, protecting your energy and staying right in your bag as described by Grande herself.

The song is also being praised for being a "bisexual anthem" as Monet sings on the pre-chorus,

"I like women and men (Yeah)/Work so f***in' much, need a twinny, twin, twin"

Monet come out as bisexual back in November 2018 via Twitter. But then some Arianators thought that Ariana herself was opening up about her sexuality while singing the lyrics,

"I like women and men"

After the controversy surrounding Grande, she responded on Twitter today saying, "I haven't before and still don't feel the need to now" amidst the rumors of bisexuality.

Either way, I still love Ariana Grande and Victoria Monet no matter what. They also make a reference to the Monopoly game with the lyrics,

"Outta here with that f***ery/Treat my goals like property/ Collect them like Monopoly"

So, overall, I love the theme of the song and the lyrics regarding the Monopoly game and bisexuality. This is the second collaboration between Monet and Grande with the first being "Better Days" way back in 2016. I also like the music video for Monopoly as well. It was original, authentic and very fun, too.

Make sure that you go and support Ariana and Victoria's Monopoly single on all streaming platforms:
