How Tik Tok Makes Songs Viral
TikTok isn't just another app; it's a phenomenon that has taken over our lives in the most melodious way possible. In just a blink, TikTok has gone from being a fun platform for lip-syncing and dancing to a global stage for making songs big, real big. At the core of the app's origins lies its ability to trigger the virality of both new and familiar tracks. Remember those times when your favorite jam played on the radio or popped up on Spotify? Well, TikTok does that, but on steroids.
According to a study sponsored by TikTok in 2021, an impressive 75% of its user base, which spans a billion individuals, have stumbled upon new artists to groove to via the app. Equally noteworthy, 63% of users have been exposed to music they’ve never heard before, thanks to trending TikTok songs.
It's all about the power of trends and the art of being relatable. When a song resonates with people, whether it's because of the lyrics, the beat, or just that inexplicable "wow" factor, it becomes a trend. Users start using the song in their videos, from heartfelt moments to hilarious pranks. As more and more folks jump on the trend, the song's popularity snowballs faster than a viral meme.
Not only does TikTok launch new hits, but it's also like a time machine for old classics. Songs that might have been collecting dust in the attic of our memories get a fresh lease on life when they become a trend on TikTok.
