More UMG Music is Getting Removed From TikTok

When UMG announced that it didn’t reach a new agreement with TikTok at the end of January, the company specified that the move was for both its record labels and publishing arm UMPG. The initial takedown earlier this month only impacted tracks from recording artists signed to UMG labels such as Interscope, Republic or Def Jam.
