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.

Jay-Z featuring Kanye West and Rihanna Run This Town

It's more "many hands make light work" than "too many cooks spoil the broth" with this collaboration from the coolest hip-hop triumvirate around.

Radiohead Harry Patch (In memory of)

Strings and Thom Yorke's falsetto reign in a fitting tribute to the recently deceased First World War veteran.

Eric Roberson Butterfly Girl

This DJ Spinna collaboration has 21st century soul stamped all over it.

My Toys Like Me Sweetheart

The latest single from this North London synth-pop quartet sounds like Aphex Twin orchestrating the 'Teletubbies' theme, topped off with a childlike vocal.

Fanfarlo We Only Come Out At Night

These rising stars cover a cool Smashing Pumpkins staple in their own twee indie fashion.

Simian Mobile Disco feat Jamie Lidell Off The Map

Pulsing techno, disco hooks and Jamie Lidell's vocals combine brilliantly in the latest from their new LP.
