“Year on TikTok 2023 is a way for us to honour some of the standout moments that have happened on TikTok throughout the year. It’s a window into stories that have inspired, entertained and educated over 1 billion people around the world,” said Adam Presser, Head of Operations on TikTok. “Thank you for another year of bringing joy to our community and sharing your creativity with us.”
Elsewhere in the 2023 report from TikTok, it was shown that half of the Top 10 most viewed global artists were K-pop groups including BTS, BLACKPINK & NewJeans.
The report on how TikTok has had an impact on the music industry comes following a new feature being introduced – allowing users to directly save sounds from the app to their streaming platform of choice.
Users in the US and UK can now test out the feature, where TikTok have teamed up with Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music. Spotify have said they will bring the feature to more markets in the future.
In other recent news, Met Police requests to remove UK drill from TikTok have risen 366 per cent since 2020.
The Met have said despite this statistic, investigators do not target any specific genre in their work: “The Met works closely with social media platforms to identify content we believe could provoke or cause violence,” said a spokesperson for the Met. “Following our referral, the social media platforms make their own decision regarding removal of content.”
