Description
A featuring artist is an Artist whose name is appended to a TrackTitle or ReleaseTitle.
Additional information
Featuring artists have to follow FeaturingArtistStyle, including the ordering of TrackTitle both of 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 ReleaseTitle or on a TrackTitle
- two or more Artists are collaborating on a Release or a Track, one of them clearly being the PrimaryArtist (note that this doesn't apply to SecondaryArtist
s like sidemen, studio musicians, group members, etc)
Also note that the ClassicalStyleGuide defines some specific use of "feat" to credit performers.
Examples
Ordering of ExtraTitleInformation which includes FeaturingArtistStyle, PartNumber, TrackVersion can be found under TrackTitle.
- A release example: Life Is Just a Game (feat. Carisma) has FeaturingArtist Carisma
- A track example: A Joy (feat. Percee P) (Koushik's Quick mix) has FeaturingArtist Percee P
