Facebook is adding music videos on the platform, as well as creating a dedicated music section for Facebook Watch. Official music videos will be available to users in the United States through the NEws feed. A number of notable music videos will be released on the platform from artists including J. Balvin, Karol G, Sebastian Yatra, Calibre 50, and more. Users will also be able to browse music videos by the artist.
Facebook stated that adding immersive music content will captivate users since festivals and concerts have been canceled. Adding the music video content was made possible through partnerships between the social media platform and major entertainment companies, including Sony Music, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and more.
