Here are the best songs from TikTok you need to know
TikTok is an interesting place– millennials will know it best as Gen Z’s version of Vine. However, TikTok isn’t specifically designed to be a meme generator, although it isn’t a bad place for it. TikTok is better known for lip-syncing and dancing to original and popular music.
TikTok loves catchy songs– usually fast and often with bass. If you’re looking to make a popular video, are just trying to find out the name of the song stuck in your head, or are curious as to what is going on in the video app that is TikTok, we have the answers for you. Here’s a list of some of TikTok’s most popular songs right now.

“Vibe” by Cookiee Kawaii
Cookiee Kawaii (and no that isn’t a typo), has been making music in the Jersey club scene since 2011, but it wasn’t until TikTok discovered her song “Vibe” in early 2020 when she gained a following online.
“Vibe” is a short song– barely over a minute, easy to learn the lyrics to since a lot of them repeat over and over again, and it’s definitely easy to dance to.
