Christoph Reiner Andersson, also known by his stage name Monopol, is an American DJ and record producer based in New Orleans and Los Angeles. He is best known for working with G-Eazy, and co-writing and producing for his two albums (including singles "Me, Myself & I", "Drifting", "I Mean It", "Let's Get Lost", and "Tumblr Girls"), Skizzy Mars, Devon Baldwin, and 90 Pounds of Pete.
Andersson is a graduate at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts in audio production. During his high-school years, he was in an indie rock band before moving on to doing his "own thing on the computer". He described his family as a musical one, as his parents gave him a guitar before he could fully walk while his father and grandfather were involved in music as a guitar player and an opera conductor respectively. He went to Loyola University in New Orleans with G-Eazy.
His stage name Monopol, derives from the French word Monopole and inspired by his obsession of wine. Andersson collaborated with G-Eazy for the song "Tumblr Girls". He released "Tuxedo", the first single from his self-titled EP in 2010, and "Metropol" EP in 2011. He founded his own record label Hurst Recordings in 2011.
