Speaking about the partnership, Alan Walker said: "It's my pleasure to partner with TikTok in this extensive campaign. TikTok is where creations meet and this resonates with the space that I have been creating with Walkerworld – creativity is a way of self-expression and it should be borderless. This also exemplifies the main message I want to convey through Walkerworld 2.0, which is “Create for Change” – I started making music for fun in my bedroom and posting on social media 10 years ago with ‘Faded’ and that changed my life. I hope to encourage everyone to keep creating as the opportunities that come with it are unlimited."
"We are incredibly excited to launch this groundbreaking campaign with Alan, an artist who truly understands the power of TikTok to build his career and engage with the global community. The Walkerworld 2.0 campaign from TikTok and SoundOn includes new and exclusive content, prizes and LIVE experiences, which will bring his millions of fans closer than ever to Alan and his music," said Nichal Sethi, Head of SoundOn, EMEA.
