“Monster” was debuted during a live show in Belfast. Dodie teased a studio version of the song on her Instagram story in March 2018 and later announced that it will be a part of her EP “Human”.
While singing the song on tour she told the audience the subject of the song:
"Have you ever looked into the eyes of someone who hates you? That’s what this song is about."
Unlike many of Dodie’s previous studio-produced songs, “Monster” is produced with far less acoustic instrumentation.
She also explained in a video celebrating the release of "Human":
"This is written about a very specific frame in my life. In which I sat opposite of someone who I once loved and who once loved me (in a way) and realised now was the moment they started to hate me."
In her video “dance party” dodie explained:
"I wrote this song in sections.
I had random ideas and stuck them all together and eventually had verses, a bridge, and a chorus!"
She also went on to explain the evolution of the bridge of the song:
"There’s a sort of rap in the middle which at first I actually tried to speak it and then realised I should never try to rap lmao so I sang it instead."
