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.

The Estate of Tupac Shakur has cryptically said that there will be a “special announcement’ tomorrow at 5pm EST.

The announcement of the announcement was made through 2Pac’s official Facebook page, which has over 19 million followers.

Wild conspiracy theories of a return from the dead aside, the announcement could be anything from a virtual return a la his Coachella hologram, confirmation of the biopic rumoured to be in the works, or something as simple and disappointing as an album reissue.

Return tomorrow at 5pm EST for a special announcement from The Estate of Tupac Shakur.

Lampooning the theories about him never actually having died, one Reddit user wrote:

‘Tomorrow is 24/08/2015

24-8-(2+0+1+5) = 4

HOWEVER - 8/2pac = 4

As we all know, 4 is the 5th letter in Thug 4 Life

4+5=9.

K is the 9th letter in Tupac Shakur. It's alphanumerical equivalent is 10.

10+9 = 19.

This is the 19th year since his 'death'.

The letters 1 and 9 are equivalent to A and I in the alphabet. AI as we all know stands for artificial intelligence.

Flip them and you get IA. What does IA stand for you ask?

I'm Alive.

Tupac is here.’

We’ll update you when the announcement is made.
