==Description==

A featuring artist is an [[Artist]] whose name is appended to a [[Track Title|TrackTitle]] or [[Release Title|ReleaseTitle]].

==Additional informations==

Featuring artists have to follow [[Featuring Artist Style|FeaturingArtistStyle]], which you should read attentively.

Usually, you want to use a featuring artist in one of these cases:
* the release sleeve clearly uses a "feat" to credit an artist either in the [[Release Title|ReleaseTitle]] or on a [[Track Title|TrackTitle]]
* two or more [[Artist]]s are ''collaborating'' on a [[Release]] or a [[Track]], one of them clearly being the [[Primary Artist|PrimaryArtist]] (note that this ''doesn't'' apply to [[Secondary Artist|SecondaryArtist]]<code><nowiki></nowiki></code>s like sidemen, studio musicians, group members, etc)

Also note that the [[Classical Style Guide|ClassicalStyleGuide]] defines some specific use of "feat" to credit performers.

==Examples==

* [[Track Title|TrackTitle]]: "''Together in Wonderland (Miracle mix) (feat. DJ Nonsense)''"
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">FeaturingArtist: "''DJ Nonsense''"
</ul>
* [[Release Title|ReleaseTitle]]: "''Life Is Just a Game (feat. Carisma)''"
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">FeaturingArtist: "''Carisma''"
</ul>
