Background
The money-inspired hip-hop song refers to American business magnate Donald Trump, particularly Mac Miller's ambitions to become wealthy and successful like him ("Take over the world when I'm on my Donald Trump shit/Look at all this money, ain't that some shit?"). In August 2011, shortly after the music video to the song reached 20 million views on YouTube, Donald Trump himself praised the song and branded the young Pittsburgh rapper as "the next Eminem".[2] Mac Miller responded appreciatively, but played down any comparisons between himself and Eminem.[3][4]
