Reinstate UMG Music, Including Taylor Swift, on TikTok

The Issue

As a passionate TikTok user and music lover, I've noticed a significant change in the platform's atmosphere since Universal Music Group (UMG) pulled their artists' music from it. The absence of songs by iconic artists like Taylor Swift has left a void that is deeply felt by the community.

TikTok has become an essential platform for music discovery with over 2 billion downloads worldwide (Sensor Tower, 2020). It's not just about entertainment; it's about connecting people through shared musical experiences. Artists like Taylor Swift have been instrumental in creating these connections.

The removal of UMG music from TikTok affects not only users but also the artists themselves. According to Rolling Stone (2019), 60% of unique Top 50 songs were popularized on TikTok before hitting radio stations.

We understand copyright issues are complex and respect the rights of all parties involved. However, we believe there is a way to resolve this situation that benefits everyone - users who love and promote these songs, artists who gain exposure and recognition, and companies who see increased engagement on their platforms.

We urge UMG to reconsider its decision and restore its catalogue on TikTok for the benefit of all stakeholders involved. Please sign this petition if you agree that UMG should bring back its music to Tiktok including artist like Taylor Swift.
