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.
Willow Smith
Whip My Hair
Surprisingly, Will Smith's 10-year-old daughter has made one of the best pop singles of 2010. Huge production and countless Rihanna/Soulja Boy-style hooks.
Robyn
Fembot
This catchy electro-pop track kicks off Robyn's new album – currently being streamed online ahead of next Monday's full release.
Netherfriends
Brett Easton Ellis Novel
Awkward indie rock'n'roll, full of melancholic melodies and psychedelic riffs.
The Vaccines
Wreckin' Bar (Ra Ra Ra)
Released earlier in the week, this incredibly short debut single sounds like polished Black Lips or Libertines.
Dirty Gold
California Sunrise
Gorgeous harmonies, reverb-drenched guitars and Bo Diddley-influenced beats. You won't know how much you're missing summer until you hear this track.
Lonely Galaxy
Bible Truth Depot
Soothing and discordant in equal measure, Lonely Galaxy somehow manage to recall a folk-pop Joy Division. Truly innovative.
Primal Scream
Higher Than the Sun
Primal Scream are set to perform the seminal 'Screamadelica' album in full at their London Olympia gig tonight. This slow-burning ode to chemical-assisted frivolity is sure to go down well.
Fantastic Mr Fox
If I
Blogosphere favourite Fantastic Mr Fox makes throbbing dubstep ,with dark and heavy grooves.
