The Rolling Stones Join TikTok
JAKARTA - An iconic band that does not need to be introduced, The Rolling Stones has officially joined TikTok. This means that creators from all over the world can access their full music catalog on the platform.
For the first time, the TikTok community can use the band's iconic songs in their video creations. Users will be able to create cover and remixes of iconic hits such as Start Me Up, It's Only Rock 'N Roll (But I Like It), and Miss You. All of these tracks are available on TikTok's Sound Field (sound Page).
An accidental encounter between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards at the Dartford train station in England in 1961 and the same love for Muddy Waters and Chuck Berry has led to the emergence of one of the biggest rock and roll bands of all time.
More than forty years later, TikTok proudly welcomed The Rolling Stones and brought the band's catalog of songs that the world's famous band has to their community.
Legendary vocalist Mick Jagger will also join TikTok with his own personal account. He joined bandmate Keith Richards who arrived on this platform last year.
Fans can follow the two accounts as well as the official channel The Rolling Stones, which will feature behind-the-scenes exclusive content from live shows, studio footage, and more.
The band also posted their first video, featuring footage of a rare archive and encouraging fans to appear, move and dress like The Rolling Stones.
To celebrate their presence, TikTok launched the official hashtag #TheRollingStones. Creators can be involved by sharing their best covers and remixes whether it's an accelerated version or bringing acoustic fromats from their favorite songs.
TikTok also invites creators to dance like Jagger, play guitar riffs like Richards, and showcase their best performance inspired by the Stones.
Fans on TikTok can also enjoy a new guest playlist curated by The Rolling Stones. The playlist features 44 hit songs from their catalogs, including Start Me Up, It's Only Rock 'N Roll (But I Like It), Miss You, Angie, Beast Of Burden, and many more.
