 To promote his upcoming fifth album , West launched GOOD Fridays , a weekly free music giveaway . The intention was to release a free new song every Friday for a few months , and the weekly tracks generally featured various rappers from his label , GOOD Music , and other artists he usually collaborated with . In the first week West released onto his website a remix of the album 's first single , " Power " , and " Monster " was released on the second week . The song was promptly removed from his website and replaced with another track , with " Monster " being uploaded as a digital single onto iTunes . West announced that " Monster " was actually intended for his collaborative album Watch the Throne with Jay @-@ Z. West 's announcement failed to surface however , and the song actually appeared on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and was released as the album 's third single .
