Distinctive artist YNES unveils punk infused new single ‘Better Job’
YNES’ latest anthem is fuelled with attitude and everything you want from this ‘post-punk meets pop’ artist. ‘Better Job’ is a big middle fingers up to the government and any sort of establishment that makes people follow your typical rulebook.
Kira, aka the genius behind the project YNES, is a rare finding that instantly captures your heart. Armed with a vibrant image, a voice bathed in British sensibilities and powerful songwriting, this unique artist’ first single of the year will grip you from start to finish.
Talking about the release, YNES mentioned, “‘Better Job’, on the surface, is me being snarky about the government for three minutes. But it’s also about the common misconceptions that so many people have regarding independent creatives. The amount of people I’ve had look at me pitifully because I don’t have a corporate job in my 20’s.
The amount of people who tell me ‘well, one day you’ll be fine!’ like – who said I wasn’t fine haha? It’s insidious, especially in this country, defining yourself by your career – and you’re labelled a slacker if you don’t subscribe to that mentality. It became most obvious to me last year, that those in power are facilitating this mindset and… I just wanted a little rant about it!”
‘Maybe I should get a Better Job’ will ring in your head for weeks to come, and that could never be a bad thing. Memorable and aggressive, there’s no ignoring this bold statement.
Retrain?! Hell no… this Queen deserves her own throne to standing up for what she believes.
We need more musicians like YNES.
