Formed in August 2007, the group originally consisted of Green and her sister Allison Green, with Dani Artaud (currently known as Snowblood) joining shortly after. The group is widely known for mixing explicit lyrics with a heavy electropop backing, as well as being one of the first acts to become "internet famous" (a term that was the predecessor to the modern day "influencer"), gaining huge notoriety and popularity during the "Myspace era" within the initial emergence of social media. They generated strong controversy during their early years, mainly for being visually and lyrically provocative. 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. They have also been mentioned as one of the major influences behind the 2020 re-emergence of the hyperpop microgenre. Melissa Marie Green and Allison Green are also known for their brief stint in reality television, being cast as replacements in the fifteenth season of Oxygen's Bad Girls Club, which consisted of a cast entirely made up of sisters.

In 2010, Artaud confirmed that she had left the group. Millionaires continued as a duo until August 2022, when Melissa Marie announced that she would be continuing Millionaires as a solo project after Allison's departure. In July 2023, Meredith Hurley and Anissa Zermeno were added to the lineup. As of October 2024, Zermeno is no longer listed as a member on official Millionaires social media accounts and has seemingly left the group.

Do the scissor
Hey
Do the scissor
Yeah
This is Trina, the Millionaires

Got my double cup of scissor while I'm dancin' on yo mista
Smokin' hot like a swisher, he love it when I scissor

So I keeps in poppin', white boys they be stoppin'
They wanna have a taste of my vanilla sugar toppin'
He like "Ay girl cut it up for me"
C-C-C-Cut it up for me
I'm like "Ay boy you wanna go?"
Crusin' topless in the lambo
Newbo imports and whiskey
Drinks on me you know I'm wealthy
I'm the new bitch in town
No man's gonna tie me down

Woah oh
(Cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up
(I like it when she cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up

Do the scissor
Hey
Do the scissor
(The scissor)
Do the scissor
Hey, do the scissor

So fresh, razor clean, got them Nikes and the bling
While he stuntin' in the club, Watch him dougie to some

Drinking goose cus it's cheap, we drink it every week
So let me see you do it, and scissor to the beat

I like it big, I like it rough, I like it when he cut it up
Fillin' up my water bottle, lots of vodka and a splash of throttle
Open close my legs all night, stop and go like traffic lights
Time to say goodbye, give this white girl a try

Woah oh
(Cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up
(I like it when she cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up

Yeah Trina
The record spin like a blizzard
And all my white girls just scissor
Let's drink it we'll get slizzered
It's diamond princess if you with her

Light that fire, cut that rug, cut up the club lets throw money up
We like it, they like it, this number one, psychic
Slip scissor cut you in half
Built up cups, all in my style
Bottles cop, models stop, what is the cake if the cherry on top
The new may rockin', Mazaratti, two bugatti's, time to party
The club get packed so fast, 'cause I got all eyes on this ass

Woah oh
(Cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up
(I like it when she cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up

I break it down when I dance
Watch me do it with no hands
I break it (down) break it (down)
Break B-B-Break it down

Woah oh
(Cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up
(I like it when she cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up)
I like it when he cut it up, cut it up, c-c-cut it up

Overall Meaning

The Millionaires' song "The Scissor" is a dance track with sexually explicit lyrics. The song is discussing a sexual practice called "scissoring," which involves two women rubbing their vulvas together. Trina, a female rapper, makes an appearance in the song and adds some verses to the sexually explicit track. The song lyrics cover a variety of topics ranging from the sexual practice, scissoring, to drinking scissor, which is cough syrup mixed with soda or other drinks.

The song opens with the lyrics, "Got my double cup of scissor while I'm dancin' on yo mista." This line references "syrup," a slang term for prescription-strength cough syrup that contains codeine and promethazine, mixed with soda or other drinks. The scissor or syrup drinks are often abused by young people as they contain codeine, an opioid, which can lead to addiction, seizures, or overdose. The song's portrayal of scissoring and drinking scissor promotes risky and harmful behavior.

In the second verse, Trina raps, "The record spin like a blizzard, and all my white girls just scissor." This line not only glamorizes scissoring but also objectifies white women in the process. The song's provocative and sexually explicit lyrics may spark controversy and backlash from some listeners.
