Universal Music Group (UMG) and TikTok have resolved their months-long dispute by reaching a new licensing agreement. This deal will see the return of UMG's extensive music catalog to the TikTok platform, including popular artists such as Taylor Swift, Drake, and Lady Gaga. The agreement includes provisions for improved remuneration for artists and AI protections. The resolution follows a period of contention over royalty payments and the use of AI-generated content, which had previously led to the removal of UMG's music from TikTok.
“We are committed to working together to drive value, discovery and promotion for all of UMG’s amazing artists and songwriters and deepen their ability to grow, connect and engage with the TikTok community.” https://t.co/YgkcoHD9a7
