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.Danny Brown has revealed that he is in the early stages of writing a new album, the follow up to last year's Old.
Danny teased the new record while shilling for Beats by Dre in a Vine, saying: "Shouts out to them for hooking me up with some new headphones so I can get ready to start on this new album."
His last album Old dropped in October of last year, and though it was met with a positive response from fans and critics lacked the visceral directness of 2011's XXX.
Danny has spent most of 2014 on tour, playing shows with A-Trak and opening for Eminem at Wembley Stadium in London.
In other hip-hop news, Run The Jewels became perhaps the first act to land a remix of their new album before it has even been released today, with a Kickstarter page campaigning for it to be remade using entirely cat sounds reaching its goal of $45,000.
The wonderfully stupid idea has the backing of El-P and Killer Mike, and several producers including Just Blaze will be helping recreate the beats using meows, hisses and purrs.
