They flaunt their recent success on the chorus claiming to \u201cTreat my goals like property\/Collect them like Monopoly.\u201d Along the way they reference how quickly <em>Thank U, Next<\/em> came together (\u201cRemember when we made a fucking album off that Clicquot?\u201d) and the fact that 90% of the royalties for Grande\u2019s long-running Number One hit \u201c7 Rings\u201d goes to the Rodgers &amp; Hammerstein estate for its <em>Sound of Music<\/em> sample.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMonopoly\u201d also has both Mon\u00e9t and Grande singing \u201cI like women and men\u201d on the song\u2019s chorus. While Grande has not commented on her sexuality, the chorus may be simply addressing Mon\u00e9t, who <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/VictoriaMonet\/status\/1065381606636974080\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">came out<\/a> on Twitter in November. Grande has not commented further on the song.<\/p>\n<p>In the video, the pair of friends and collaborators dance on a roof top as emojis fly across the screen. It has a home video quality to the entire clip, reminiscent of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s hotel-made \u201c7\/11\u201d visual.<\/p>\n<p>Grande is currently touring in support of both <em>Thank U, Next<\/em> and <em>Sweetener<\/em>. Both albums debuted at Number One. Mon\u00e9t has been working with Grande since 2014\u2019s <em>My Everything<\/em> as a songwriter, vocal producer and tour mate.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/ariana-grande-victoria-monet-monopoly-video-815940\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ariana Grande and Victoria Mon\u00e9t have released a brand new collaboration titled \u201cMonopoly.\u201d Mon\u00e9t has co-written many of Grande\u2019s latest songs, including Number One hits \u201cThank U, Next\u201d and \u201c7 Rings.\u201d Above a simple, bouncy beat, the pair sing in a clipped, soft fashion.
