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.

Beck covered the late Prince during his set on Friday at Governors Ball.

The singer played “Raspberry Beret” and reminisced over his 2015 Grammy win when he was presented the award by the Purple One himself. He admitted it was one of the “strangest, most amazing moments” in his life. Watch Beck cover Prince in the video below.

Beck also covered Prince's "1999" before performing "Where It's At?"
