Taylor Swift's Music Returns to TikTok, Marking a Breakthrough in Licensing Dispute

Despite ongoing tensions between Universal Music Group and TikTok, Taylor Swift has successfully brought her music back to the platform, leveraging her unique copyright control.

Taylor Swift's music is back on TikTok after a 10-week hiatus due to a licensing dispute with Universal Music Group.
Swift's return to TikTok strategically aligns with the upcoming release of her new album, 'The Tortured Poets Department', on April 19.
The return includes popular tracks and 'Taylor’s Version' songs, highlighting Swift's control over her music rights.
Other Universal Music Group artists remain absent from TikTok, underscoring the ongoing dispute over licensing terms and artist compensation.
Swift's move is seen as a significant leverage in the broader industry struggle for fair music licensing on major platforms.
