With 16.3 million TikTok followers and 46.43 million monthly Spotify listeners, Rauw Alejandro's reach makes this partnership particularly significant. The artist emphasized the platform's importance for creative expression and fan engagement, stating: "It's an honor to be the first Latin artist to partner with the team at TikTok for this massive campaign."
