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.

Frank Ocean - 'Summer Remains'

A refreshingly low-key YouTube release from this hip hop star.

Teengirl Fantasy - 'Motif'

A fine new 7'' single from the electro duo. A new album is out this year.

Yeasayer - 'Henrietta'

The Brooklyn-based band announce their return with this funky, commercial, indie pop cut.

Donna Summer - 'Hot Stuff'

This immortal party hit by the late disco queen is the perfect summer anthem.

Florence & the Machine - 'Shake It Out'

The flame-haired singer will perform this Ivor Novello-nominated belter when she headlines Bestival this September.

The Bee Gees - 'I Started A Joke'

Hear the late Robin Gibb singing one of his best songs, which he wrote for the group in their excellent early, pre-disco era.

Oh No ft. MF Doom - '3 Dollars'

Cartoonish gangster rap packed with synthetic Nineties horns and rich 808 beats.
