QQ Music (Chinese: QQ音乐) is one of three Chinese freemium music streaming services owned by Tencent Music, a joint venture between Tencent and Spotify. As of 2018, the service is set to reach over 700 million users with an estimated 120 million subscribers.[1]

The service merged with China Music Corporation, the owner of KuGou and KuWo, the second and the third largest music streaming services respectively in the country, in 2016. By 2018, QQ Music's market share among Mainland China's music platforms increased to 75%.[2]

Outside of streaming, the service leverages its brand to the public through the annual QQ Music Awards.
