Defender is heading into new territory once again with the launch of its official TikTok account in collaboration with pioneering British rapper, songwriter and actor Kano.
Famous for heroic capability and exceptional all‑terrain adventures, Defender is now exploring a musical world it has much in common with. Like the best music, Defender represents losing yourself in the experience and taking the road less travelled. The official new TikTok account will deepen this connection.
Defender is an icon that can trace its roots back to the very beginning of a genre it now defines. As a musician, I aim to be as real as possible and innovate in a similar way, so I can relate to that journey. What’s more, Defender is more relevant today than ever and is completely unmistakable – which is the kind of aesthetic I strive for in my own music.
Kano
Music artist and actor
The new TikTok account seeks to inspire Defender clients – known to have a great passion for music – through innovative collaborations with renowned artists such as Kano. The debut tie‑up features the ground‑breaking artist alongside Defender 90, showcasing its authentic, purposeful design and unmistakable reductive silhouette.
The launch of Defender TikTok also sees the brand form a new digital community in parallel with the community of Defender owners. Kano has an authentic and innovative approach and is a pioneer in the British music industry. The Defender account will inspire and connect with an entirely new group of people with content created just for them. Award‑winner Kano and Defender 90 headline the launch as the Defender for a new generation – the ultimate combination of power and purpose.
Defender can trace its roots back to the original 1948 Land Rover and has evolved to become one of the most capable and recognisable 4x4s in the world. It is designed to rove the land and conquer any environment, enabling clients to be exceptional with endless possibilities.
Defender and music can both unlock powerful emotions, inspiring whole communities to go their own way, break new ground and embrace all kinds of adventures. Launching our new account with Kano – a pioneer who has helped shape UK music and is a role model in that industry – is a fitting way for the Defender brand to make its TikTok debut.
