Credetiquette...?

Credetiquette...?
Posted on: 30.03.2011 by Lula Falconburg
Just finishing up a dubstep track featuring some Loleatta Holloway vocals. It's definitely not a remix though. I was wondering if it would be considered poor etiquette to title the track me (feat. Lolleatta Holloway) - song name?

Is that something that collaborating artists agree to?
Would labeling the track as such come off as a cheap way to get people to listen to my stuff?

What are some other ways to give credit where credit is due?

That's exactly why I asked

I can't really answer this, it might be an extra sensitive subject considering she died a week ago.

I don't know man. In my opinion, "featuring" (and it's variations) imply a knowing collaboration between both people involved.

Right, but it's not a consensual collaboration. The "feat." credit is still justified?

what dvls said, your name ft sec artist usually refers to a consensual collaboration.

As far as etiquette goes, I'd put a feat. in there for sure. Like <your name> - <track name> (feat. Loleatta Holloway)

Props for using her vocals. If your the original producer, then I believe that's okay. If it's more of a mashup or sampling then then list it as so.

Link?
