It's possible to add a featured artist to track during the upload process under the "Track" section of the upload form, or after upload via an edit request submitted from the album page.
Adding a featured artist does not require any additional artist slots on your DistroKid account.
Please note that if you have the same featured artist on all tracks of a multi-track album, streaming services require that they instead be listed as a Primary artist.
Adding a Featured Artist During Upload
To add a featured artist to a track on the upload form, select "Yes, add featured artists to track title (please specify...)" under the Add featured artist to song title?" section.
After selecting "Yes," enter the artist name for your featured artist.
You'll have the opportunity to enter your featured artist's existing Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music pages in the "Artist Mapping" section found at the bottom of the upload form.
Adding a Featured Artist After Upload
To add or edit a featured artist to a track that has already been uploaded, head to the album page from your DistroKid dashboard and click "Edit release."
Select "Add another featured artist" and choose Featuring from the dropdown, then enter in your featured artist info. After selecting "Yes," enter the artist name for your featured artist.
Once the featured artist is entered, click on "Submit edit request" on the bottom of the edits page. Streaming services usually handle these edits within a few days, but metadata updates like this can take 1-2 weeks to reflect across all services.
