Hi everyone,

I have a few questions about the artist credit for these releases:  
[https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release-group/ebcaa47f-e115-4bb4-8f84-251bd8ddf0d1](https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release-group/ebcaa47f-e115-4bb4-8f84-251bd8ddf0d1)

1. On Spotify, the title is listed as “**[Touch (ft. YEONJUN of TOMORROW X TOGETHER)](https://open.spotify.com/album/3ohHp2OASdUUB5ryLhvKpU)**”.
2. The album cover displays “KATSEYE with YEONJUN”.  
[see cover](https://a1.mzstatic.com/r40/Music211/v4/9c/95/aa/9c95aa7f-4d60-7572-b49c-aa42e4bbe095/24UM1IM04066.rgb.jpg)
3. On Apple Music, the artist credit is “**[KATSEYE, YEONJUN](https://music.apple.com/us/album/touch-single/1771741562)**” (which typically imports as “_KATSEYE & YEONJUN_”).

Given these differences, which artist credit should I use?

Thanks for your help! 🥰

By the way, when i search the ISRC, the artist name displayed is also “_ **KATSEYE & YEONJUN.** _”

I usually go with the title and credits from the cover image (when it includes them).

Different digital platforms have their own policies for formatting titles and credits, and I figure that the cover image is closer to what the artist/label intended. (Even in the case of a Bandcamp release that was uploaded by the artist, I usually stick with what’s on the cover – I assume that more thought went into creating the image, and the text on the webpage often includes additional words to improve searchability.)

Yes, I have always done it this way. If there is a conflict between the artist credit on the _digital platform_ and the artist credit on the cover, I will use the one from the cover. If the cover is not available, I will look for images of the _physical disc_’s back or tracklist.🤓
