Montreal DJ's new song premieres on TikTok

Feb 17 2021, 11:44 pm

Montreal DJ and producer KAYTRANADA’s newest release, “Caution,” just premiered in the most 2021 way possible: as aĀ TikTok sound.

The new track is part of a tribute to Black artists that’s been organized by the social media platform. Along with this release, TikTok is celebrating Black History Month by spotlighting Black creators, influencers, and activists through live conversations and curated playlists.

TikTok hasn’t specified when “Caution” would be released on streaming platforms, only stating it would be “later this month.”

KAYTRANADA, who was recently nominated for three Grammys, including one for best new artist, casually shared the news on his Instagram story, inviting his fans to “go look for it.”
