TikTok announces today the public launch of TikTok Music – the premium-only music streaming service – in Singapore. TikTok Music has, until now, only been available to a closed group of beta testers, but today’s announcement sees the new social music streaming service become available to all music fans in Singapore.

TikTok Music harnesses the power of music discovery on TikTok, helping users to enjoy their favourite viral tracks and artists on TikTok Music, giving them the ability to listen, download and share full tracks to their community, and to transition between TikTok and TikTok Music seamlessly.

To coincide with the launch in Singapore, TikTok Music has added some new music discovery features, including Party It, for personalised collaborative listening, FYP Tuning, where users can swipe right for a choice of music scenes and moods, and Tonik, a music discovery personal assistant powered by ChatGPT, which provides answers to questions TikTok Music users have about music. Users can ask Tonik to search for an artist, track or playlist, ask about concerts and music news, learn about the stories behind the music, and much more.

TikTok Music boasts a wide range of other social music streaming features designed to take enjoyment of music on TikTok to the next level, including:
