"The Moneymaker" is the second single from Los Angeles-based indie rock band Rilo Kiley's fourth album Under the Blacklight. The song has a strong funk influence, with Pierre de Reeder's bass taking a prominent role. The lyrics are almost certainly about sex, if not prostitution or the adult industry, in keeping with the album's theme of showing the "sketchy side" of Los Angeles. The song samples The Cars' Moving in Stereo. In 2009, the song was featured in a Carl's Jr.
