Justin Bieber and Shawn Mendes have taken the internet by a storm with their latest music video titled Monster. Few hours into its release, the song has been garnering heaps of praise from fans and music lovers. Justin Bieber and Shawn Mendes’ newly released song is on the lines of talking about their bad past. The duo can be heard talking about the 'monster' they fear and also want to avoid.

Shawn and Justin are talking about "tripping," "falling," their "sins," and "breaking down". And all this according to the song makes them a 'monster'. In the song, Justin Bieber is also heard talking about being jealous and making bad moves during the age of 15. Justin Bieber, also in his verse, sings about taking responsibility for his past actions. In a quip to his critics and haters, he says, “holding it against me like you’re the holy one.” For the unknown, in his single Lonely, Justin had also talked about how the troubles began for him at a very young age.

The song starts with Mendes criticizing the burden of being worshipped by the public, which creates monsters out of the same artists if they don't suit their definition of perfection. In the second half of the track, Bieber enters, narrating his tale of becoming a musical sensation at the age of 15 and the trauma of his' bad decisions' being exposed to public uproar.
