sweatshop

A makeshift factory where men, women, and children slave for twelve hours or more a day for almost no money in crowded, dirty, dangerous conditions
under the iron fist of unscrupulous managers just so that
rich children get the toys that they want for their birthdays and for Christmas and so that their parents and older siblings
get nice clothes and cool gadgets.
Example:
Nike, Banana Republic, the Gap, among others, use sweatshops. Sweatshops are everywhere, from Thailand and Honduras to New York and Los Angeles, often virtually enslaving workers.
The Triangle
Shirtwaist Factory Fire on
March 25, 1911, in New York killed
146 clothing makers, most of them young immigrant women, some of them as young as thirteen. 62 of them jumped nine floors to the street below in their effort to escape the fire. And the patterns are being repeated today around the world.

A sub-genre of pop music made by artists to be used in advertising, store
ambience, corporate settings, and other similar situations, or seemingly to do so. The name is derived from the fake and manufactured feel of the song, making it seem like it was made in a
sweatshop. These songs often get tens of millions of streams, mostly from Target and
TJ Maxx playing it in all of their stores repeatedly for weeks or months.
