The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara unveil the official video for “The Chefs Song,” the fourth single from forthcoming second studio album “Trust No Leaders,” which is due for release on July 1, 2022. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
“The Chefs Song” is a satirical vaudeville that dramatises the pressures of working in a busy kitchen in order to shed light on the urgency of the issue of inhospitable and exploitative working conditions in the hospitality sector. What the theatrical comedy of the song belies is a sinister truth, a tragedy that plagues our modern societies — the prevalence of modern slavery in the 21st century.
According to a study by the Human Trafficking Foundation (2018):
More than 1 in 10 people who work in hospitality in the world are reported to be working under modern slavery conditions. For far too long, this has remained hidden from the public eye — behind the closed doors of some kitchens, hotels, and restaurants.
