With an upbeat-yet-dark attitude, Abel details a re-introduction to his lavish party lifestyle and his pursuit of a woman who is already spoken for. Musically, Doc McKinney and Ben Billions' beat effectively delivers a woozy, paranoid vibe, which mirrors the substance-induced haze of the overindulgent events disclosed in the lyrics.

“Party Monster” features additional vocals from the track’s co-writer and “Prisoner” collaborator Lana Del Rey, who is featured on the album’s eighth track “Stargirl Interlude.”

“Party Monster” was one of two singles released a week prior to Starboy, dropping alongside “I Feel It Coming” on November 17.
