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.As with much American R&B, N-Dubz's songs on Love.Live.Life tend to circle around the soap opera of their lives in the glass bowl of showbiz.
And while they may not have the headline problems of a Whitney or Cheryl to deal with, the little problems are starting to itch. "Best Behaviour" deals with the contrast between the acclaim experienced onstage, and the loneliness felt when the curtain falls, while elsewhere the fallout from the casual liaisons celebrated in "Toot It and Boot It" comes home to roost in "Took It All Away". But it's fairly predictable fare, from the furious slagging of an unnamed rival in "Skit" to the assertions of multi-platform ubiquity in "Scream My Name". The best piece here is "So Alive", blessed with an ebullient bonhomie which, despite the lingering attitude, proves engagingly infectious.
