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.Buzz has been building for weeks on hip hop/electro artist Theophilus London's debut album, Timez Are Weird These Days. The album released on July 19 and is streaming in full at Spin.com.
The Brooklyn-based MC reportedly caused a stir after his performance at this year's Cannes Film Festival, and bloggers and critics have been pegging him as one to watch.
He recently released a new animated video for the song "Girls, Girls $," and the album's lead track, "I Stand Alone," is featured in a new trailer for the second season of HBO series How To Make It in America.
"If you made a hipster-rap bonus baby in a laboratory, you couldn't do much better than Theophilus London," writes Rolling Stone. "The 23-year-old Trinidad-born Brooklyn MC's neo-retro hip-hop mashes up TV on the Radio's vocal cadences, old-school break-dance beats and the forlorn melodic tug of a Smiths fan (he dropped This Charming Mixtape in 2009)."
