Some interesting information.

Keith Caulfield - Associate Director of Charts at @billboard

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
Why doesn't @avicii give "featuring" credit to the guest vocalists on his albums/songs, a la @davidguetta?

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
I ask because @aloeblacc would have a top 10 hit single on the @billboard Hot 100 w/ @avicii, but Avicii doesn't give Blacc artist credit.

Kerri Mason ‏@kerrilmason
@keith_caulfield Management believes it takes focus away from Avicii. Those were the terms before anyone hit the studio.

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
I have my @avicii answer, thanks to @kerrilmason's @billboard cover story last week… shop.billboard.com/products/billboard-back-issue-volume-125-issue-36 …

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
.@avicii's manager says "I wanted to make Avicii a huge artist, not a DJ. Therefore, I did not allow any features on our own records."

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
.@avicii's manager continues: "Obviously everyone didn't accept this…but I stood firm."

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
More: "Before going into sessions, I would state these terms and if they weren't agreed to, we'd turn down the opportunity to collaborate."

Keith Caulfield ‏@keith_caulfield
So, ultimately, @aloeblacc, @nilerodgers, @adamlambert, etc. all agreed on the "no featuring" credit with @avicii.

I need translation. What does "feature on an album" mean? How does it differ from writing and vocal credit?

Means the names of the vocalists are not listed on the album with the name of the song, only in the credits. I can sort of understand that as a lot of people are treating LMD like an Adam song, not Avicii song. I hope it will not make him change his mind about making it a single.

It could mean the artists doesn't get credit if the song becomes a hit. Let's say the song goes to #1 that would exclude Adam from getting credit for having a #1 song. That's why when you go and purchase the song only Avicc's name you'll see instead of "lay Me Down" - Avicii ft. Adam Lambert & Nile Rodgers. It could also effect royalties paid to Adam but I'm not sure about this.

Not sure where the disrespect angle comes in. I actually think it's more respectful the way they are doing it. With multiple guests Queen very easily could have gone on as Queen (with special guests). But they didn't. They are highlighting that Adam is singing with them and that there are others helping. I don't think Queen has shown anything but utter respect for Adam. Some Queen fans not so much but the band has never been disrespectful to Adam in my opinion.

RESPECT ...absolutely !

Just home from work and listened to both classic rock radio stations in the car and 24 hours before the concert "Queen + Adam Lambert" is still being touted on the adverts. I'd say the at least once an hour ads have brought major awareness to Adam.

And I get giddy imagining the excitement with all the talent in one place !!!!

If I haven't thanked you before Talon, your informative posts are much appreciated!

Meat Loaf 04/08/2012
" Adam Lambert, by the way, is possibly one of the three greatest singers in the entire world. I link him with Aretha, Whitney, and Adam Lambert. I couldn’t touch those three with a ten foot, or hundred foot, pole. Emotionally I can, vocally I couldn't."
