Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.
Azealia Banks - Succubi
This may well be our first taste of Banks’s (very) long-awaited debut album. Coming hot on the heels of the ‘Fantasea’ mixtape, a slot on the ‘Broke With Expensive Taste’ LP seems likely.
Ty Segall - The Hill
The lead single from Segall’s third album is a rip-roaring punk rock’n’roll number reminiscent of early Supergrass.
Jessie Ware - Sweet Talk
Beautifully produced neo-soul that mixes Marvin Gaye’s smooth instrumentation with staccato beats to give it a thoroughly modern edge.
Dirty Beaches - Elizabeth’s Theme
Beaches’ latest track is fully stripped-down electronica with hints of Balearic chill-out. It also forms the first instalment of Kingfisher Blues Records’ new singles club.
Egyptian Hip Hop - SYH
EHH continue to prove their talent for spiking songs with soft psychedelia while refusing to let go of their pop sensibilities.
Heems - Killing Time
With his liberal use of an Echo & the Bunnymen sample, Heems’s brand of intelligent hip-hop is made all the more commercial.
