TikTok spotlights its influence on music culture for global campaign
"TikTok is cementing its status as a destination for music discovery with "See Where Music Takes You," the ByteDance-owned app's first large-scale campaign dedicated to the music experience on the platform, per release details. TikTok has increasingly played a role in shaping new trends and thrusting brands and products into the mainstream, and its influence on the music scene has been no different. Eighty-four percent of all songs that entered the Billboard Global 200 Chart in 2024 first gained traction on TikTok, according to data cited in release details."
"At the center of its campaign is "Follow the Music," a 30-second spot set to the song "Love Me Not" that brings to life the musical possibilities on TikTok beyond a song itself, including remixes, DJ mashups, and music trends, or the ability to connect with fellow music fans. The spot was directed by Nabil Elderkin, who has worked with artists like Dua Lipa, Tyla and Kendrick Lamar."
