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.

Drake has released his anticipated Scary Hours 2 EP.

The project comprises three tracks, and includes guest features from Rick Ross and Lil Baby. It follows the first Scary Hours EP, which was released in 2018 and included the hit “God’s Plan”.

The single “What’s Next” was also accompanied by a video directed by Theo Skudra.

The release coincided with the re-launch of Drake’s OVO Sound Radio, which has moved from Apple Music Radio to SiriusXM.

Drake’s latest album, Certified Lover Boy, is expected to drop sometime this year.

It was initially scheduled for a January release date, but was postponed after Drake injured his knee.

The Canadian artist provided a vague update on OVO Sounding, saying it was “currently being chef’d in every way possible” and revealing he’d been working with regular collaborators Noel Cadastre and Noah “40” Shebib.

“I don’t have an exact date, but it’s in the pot and it’s coming soon,” he said.

Drake released his last full-length project, the Dark Lane Demo Tapes mixtape, in 2020.
