This is great news for everyone who loves listening to hit tracks on TikTok! But for old grumblers who like to purr about noisy youth - this is probably bad news 😆

I had little doubt that TikTok and UMG would eventually find a common language. Hits by Drake, The Weeknd and other stars are a solid driver for attracting an audience! 💰

Eh, once again TikTok will be attacked by many viral hits. It's good or bad - decide for yourself. As for cooperation between TikTok and UMG on copyright protection using AI, the idea is interesting! 🤖

All these trendy trendy things for young people are just ridiculous! Some TikTok started yesterday, tomorrow it will be forgotten. There's nothing to get upset about it 😒

By the way, I wonder if artists will get their due reward from the new monetization tools on TikTok, or will everything go into the pockets of big companies again? 🤔

I think this is a good decision for all parties - fans can listen to their favorite artists, artists get a chance to build a fan base, and TikTok and UMG have potential profits. Win-win! ✌️

I dream of creating some cool viral trend to Sophie Alice-Bextor's song Murder on the Dancefloor! Because this melody is simply charming and infectious 💃🏻 Who knows, maybe we will become new millionaire tiktokers? 😝
