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.

Musicians Nicki Minaj and Post Malone will headline Jay-Z's annual Made In America music festival in Philadelphia.

The two-day event will also feature established artists including Meek Mill, Diplo, Miguel, Janelle Monáe and Alessia Cara.

Joining them will be rising artists including Jessie Reyez, Saweetie and BlocBoy JB.

The timing for Minaj's headlining slot will come just a few months after the release of her new record Queen.

Meek Mill's show at Made In America will be his first performance in his hometown of Philadelphia since his release from prison.

Meek - alongside Minaj - played at Rolling Loud Festival last month as a surprise guest.

He'll be headlining Hot 97's Summer Jam before his show in Philadelphia this fall.

Made In America featured leading acts Jay-Z, J. Cole and Solange in 2017.

This year's Made In America will take place September 1 and 2.

The TIDAL pre-sale starts today, and tickets can be purchased here.
