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.

2 Chainz ft Kanye West

Birthday Song

Funkystepz's “Miami Bass Edit” is the version to listen to; moving the track from generic, monochrome hip-hop to a technicolor celebration of eccentricity.

Toro Y Moi

So Many Details

A departure for Chaz Bundick as he moves from stoner funk into soft seduction. Recalls Serge Gainsbourg.

The Coup ft Das Racist and Killer Mike

WAVIP

A funky but politically-charged promo track from the group's forthcoming “Sorry to Bother You” LP.

Wu-Tang Clan and Kool G Rap

Rivers of Blood

Yet another excellent cut from the soundtrack of the Quentin Tarantino-produced film “The Man With the Iron Fists”.

Holy Ghost!

It Gets Dark

Downbeat and moody, this song builds from minimalism to an expansive soundscape without compromising its menace.
