Millionaires is an American electronic music group currently consisting of Melissa Marie Green and Meredith Hurley. The group, formed in August 2007, originally consisted of Green and her sister Allison Green, as well as friend Dani Artaud. The group are widely known for mixing heavily explicit lyrics with an electropop backing. Their image and lyrics generated strong controversy during their early years (mainly for using explicit words in nearly all of their songs). The band released three EPs, several singles—including “Stay the Night”, which managed to chart for a short time in the UK, and their debut album, Tonight, released in March 2013. In March 2016 they released a single with producer Wade Martin titled “When I’m Single”. Much of their music style was ground-breaking in forming the crunkcore genre. The members are also widely known as being one of the first to become “Internet famous” (such people are now known as “influencers“), gaining huge notoriety and popularity during the “Myspace era” of the mid 2000s within the emergence of social media. The Millionaires are also known for being in the scene genre today.
