YNES - BETTER JOB, A SOCIAL HIT.

Back in October, the chancellor Rishi Sunak suggested that 'musicians and others in arts should retrain and find other jobs' . These generated a deserved reaction from music artists, ruined by the pandemic and the impossibility of doing live concerts . As Tim Burgess properly said for The Guardian 'Sunak didn’t seem to take into account (...) that musicians and actors have been working other jobs for years – as baristas, chefs, roadies, graphic designers or bartenders, and in so many roles in the ironically named “gig” economy – to fill the time between, well, gigs'. 

That is what Coventry singer and songwriter, YNES dennounces in her new song, 'Better Job'. The track sounds punk and , maybe,  there is no better genre for battling disappointment and impotence, asking for help for an industry that annually collects millions, but which is now defenceless, much more since UK's government Brexit deal. The irritation and anger in YNES voice make you touch teenager rebellion again. 

The single shows an artist inevitably social and aware of the problems that surround her. This is a great answer to the music industry situation and an anthem to these times. YNES responds to Rishi Sunak doing what artists do best , writing a song .
