“Popular Monster” is Falling in Reverse’s fourth standalone single and talks about Ronnie Radke’s depression and accusations in his whole life. As the vocalist said to Loudwire:

It’s the story of a hero that’s been falsely accused and torn down by society. It shows what happens when you get pushed too far. You become exactly what they say you are, exactly what they want you to be—a monster.

The vocalist is someone people “love to hate” and he feels pressured by this. In his entire life as a musician, he’s been accused of:

1. Throwing mic stands into the crowd;
2. Physical abuse to girlfriend;
3. Not getting along with anyone;
4. Kicking I See Stars off their tour, not paying them for being on tour with them.

Whether the accusations are fake or not, people tend to see him as a horrible person.
