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.

J. Cole, the 31-year-old rapper who went platinum with no features, is releasing his latest album, 4 Your Eyez Only, on December 9 via Dreamville/Roc Nation. The 10-track album is currently available for pre-order on iTunes, following up his previous record 2014 Forest Hills Drive.

While the tracklist hasn’t been revealed, the album appeared on iTunes Thursday morning. The last time Jermaine spoke to the public, he told his audience at the Meadows Music and Arts Festival in New York City that the performance would be his last for a very long time, suggesting that he was dedicating his energy to finish his fourth studio album.
