Billionaire es una colaboración entre Travie McCoy y Bruno Mars, lanzada como el primer sencillo del álbum debut de McCoy, Lazarus, en 2010. La letra expresa el deseo de ser extremadamente rico no solo por lujo, sino también para poder hacer buenas acciones por el mundo, como ayudar a los menos afortunados y contribuir a causas benéficas.
