Show featured artists on song title - Android

So I just recently realized that if you open any album, the song title doesn't include the featured artist in it.

Example:
In Justin Timberlake's album Man of the Woods, it only says 'Morning Light' but on Apple Music or Spotify it's 'Morning Light (feat. Alicia Keys)'.

In Chris Brown's album, it's only 'Superhuman' when it's supposed to be 'Superhuman (feat. Keri Hilson)'.

I mean it's really stupid and not fair for the featured artist not to be mentioned.

You know what's even dumber? In Singles, everything is normal, the Artist is mentioned in the song title (ex: Finesse (Remix) [feat. Cardi B]), but in Albums, it's just the Album artist!

Come on Deezer, please fix this issue, it's just stupid and disrespectful to the featured artists/musicians.

For the love of God, if this music app doesn't have anything else at least let me know what artist features on a song. You're not giving credit to the artists who put time and hard work into these songs. Do it.

Hi there @Amirpouya.Ghasemi

Please vote for the idea here 😉

This shouldn't even be a discussion topic. Please display featured artists on songs. Eg A Lot - 21 Savage. It's suppose to say ft. J. Cole either on the song title or artist line. This is really a straight forward feature that's on EVERY OTHER STREAMING SERVICE. Please fix it immediately.

All of the music I listen to is released by digital labels. Recently I've seen Spinnin' Records update all of their releases to show original mixes without '(Original Mix)' in the track ID as well as add the featured artist in the track ID. I'm wondering why Deezer doesn't apply this to all tracks as it would make searching for a track a lot easier.

'ID (feat. Artist)' would allow users to search for tracks by a specific vocalist in a playlist which isn't possible for tracks without the (feat. Artist)' suffix at the moment. I've noticed other streaming services like Apple Music and Google Play Music use this format but unfortunately not Deezer.

For me, it doesn't make sense to show only the first artist of a track and forget about the others.
With only the first artist shown, is a very bad experience for users who search for a track with o lot of featured remixes versions of a track.
For example, who is the featured artist of these remixes versions of the Giulia Be's song? (see attachment)
So please, show all the artists of a song in the search screen, album screen, artist screen, playlist screen, etc.
If you show all the artists (like the iOS version), you could improve the experience of the app.

code:
Show featured artists on song title

When I turn on a song where I sing a few artists shows only one main.
For example, the song SOS Avicii is from Aloe Black but only Avicii is displayed
In Tidal, after pressing the show, artists show everyone who is in the song.

Any updates on this? This thing should not be difficulty to implement because in the iOS version this is already implemented. So... why not in android version?

Hey @Fabio10

Thank you for your patience and for your feedback. This will be worked on by our Android team soon. It's basically going up the list of priorities. We agree that we need to display the correct artists throughout our catalogue. Thank you for contributing to this improvement. Once I know more about it, I'll let you know here 😉

My android device does not display the featured artistes on a track yet when I check the app on the iphone or laptop, it does. I'm not sure why this hasn't yet been fixed but for sure it needs to.

This feature definitely needs to be added to the mobile app, I notice that the featured artistes info is visible while using deezer from the browser on the computer but this info is just not visible from the mobile app (Android). It needs urgent attention!! I constantly have to google the tracks to find out the artistes i'm listening to on tracks with collabs.
