Song Features (feat. onlysmallbites) 

Boredom by Tyler, the Creater is one of my favorite examples of two artists who, at the time, felt way different from one another, and ended up complimenting eachother perfectly

Always remember: If there's a great song that has a bad feature or vice-versa, there'll always be a RU-vid video with 500+ views that has the bad part removed. (MotorSport, Shells ft. Lil Uzi, etc.)

I feel like Kendrick is the highlight whenever he's featured. Family ties, mask off, control, nosetalgia

Kanye on Fall Out Boy's "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race - Remix" is one of the worst feature verses I've ever heard but it's also kind of unintentionally hilarious

I can’t believe no one hasn’t mentioned the “self feature” on Trilogy. On Thursday, the second tape, there’s Lonely Star and The Birds Pt. 2, both of which feature a female character called Valerie. (She gets the bonus track named after her, too.) Valerie is just The Weeknd with a voice changer, but, in my opinion, it really is convincing enough to feel like an extra feature on the mixtape besides Drake of all people. “She” only narrates on Lonely Star, but she sings the chorus on TBP2. (The latter track also begins with her crying.)

Truly legendary posse cut I'm surprised wasn't mentioned: Danny Brown's "Really Doe." Danny sets the tone with his opening verse, then being complemented with Kendrick Lamar on the hook and bridge, and Ab-Soul & Earl Sweatshirt's verses. Their voices' different timbres just fit together perfectly.

No one’s gonna talk about the king of relying entirely on features……. Dj Khaled

I think we can all agree that Future's feature on King's Dead is the greatest feature of all time across all genres

Westside Gunn almost always gets the best out of his feats. His ear for curation is amazing and he puts it to work work so well.

Kanye on American Boy by Estelle is one of best rap features on a singer's track in the 2000s

Jack Harlow on industry baby is one of the greatest features of the last few years

Featured vocalist on EDM songs can really elevate the song into a new level. You can totally play it everywhere not just in the clubs and music festivals

every weeknd feature becomes a song of its own fr

4:50 It’s interesting that you bring this up; because I distinctly remember a problem with older mp3’s was that any song featuring an artist, would create a new artist… example: one song creating a new artist category. Tyler the Creator ft. Kali Uchis (this is now a singular artist according to my iPod).

I think features can be really powerful in making us reconsider our opinions on artists we may have written off. We'll wanna keep listening to the song even if we're not 100% on the feature at first because we wanna hear the main artist. I had this with the Rico Nasty feature on Ain't No Way from the latest Denzel Curry record, didn't like her part at first but now I enjoy it as much as the rest.

All Drake features on Abel's songs are amazing, and I really loved the work he did with Future too. Also glad you mentioned Kanye's "Monster" and "So Appalled", but I think Jay's verse on Monster was actually pretty good, though his is technically the weakest when compared to Nicki and Kanye's verses. His work on So Appalled was crazy though

Bro I got the notification and was here Hella fast love ur stuff and gotta say your the reason why I started album collecting.

I donʼt know if this also counts, but the fact that BROCKHAMPTON in 2017 has performed their best songs without having any MC superstar really proved to be the greatest boy band ever. Also, posse cuts are great.

carti and fivio on off the grid is my favorite of the past few years

This whole video brings me back to Newgrounds-era flash cartoons. Nostalgic. Great video Mr. Small Bites

flygod and Tyler's contrast on the fly who couldn't fly straight Is amazing

4:37 - 4:41 "You mean the fact that Airplanes was initially made for Lupe Fiasco's album Lasers and that Hayley Williams' voice wasn't modified like in the official song, right?" *sees the Mordecai×TwilightSparkle doodle* "Oh, you mean that..."

ideally a feature shouldn't outclass the main artist but they should add something to the song. still, my favourite "outclasses main artist" example is Lil Wayne on Drake's "You Only Live Twice". I've looped snippets that are just his verse more times than I've heard anything else off that last record

I love the part where you show all the records on the shelf’s and you have Exmilitary by Death Grips ! So clever

Longest posse cut i have seen is disciple - we dont play. Its a collab between almost all artists on the record label disciple

wow. I subbed to you for the funny 1 minute album breakdowns, but this video was so good!! Amazing animation, great script, and great points! hyped for the next one. good job!

The greatest hidden feature is probably Beyonce on Pink + White by Frank Ocean, her backing vocals make me accend every time

what can we do by Anderson .Paak feat. Nate Dogg is amazing and the fact that Nate died 7 years prior makes the ending really sweet.

As a french rap lover, my feats will not be interesting to many but "Spécial" by Laylow ft. Fousheé & Nekfeu is my clear favorite and the worse? I don't remer the name of the track but Tony parker (basketter) inviting Booba (old "goat" of the 2000s..) only made them free punchlines for anyone else even now. And btw, love your stuff

One of my favorite things Mac Miller ever did, was feature on his own side projects a lot. My Grandfather Used to Carry a Flask from Delusional Thomas is the absolute best example of this, but he also did it on the closing song of run on sentences volume 1. Which is a bit funnier, because he begins it with "Damn Larry Fisherman, you really did something here" which is just fully complimenting himself before hopping in to close the beat tape.

Kendrick Lamar's feature on mask off remix makes to 100x better IMO

You know a song is good when Rocky is featured

Puppet by Tyler, the Creator is a good example because for a good amount of the song you dont hear kanye, but as soon as you do you think, "wait is that Ye?" Then you immediately scroll down to the credits and find out that it is Kanye. Another part I like about is that it is subtle but adds a whole aspect to the song.

Bro put in "That's enough" my brain goes dummy, already a solid 9 but addin that JSR in there made it a 10

I have yet to see anyone mention RNP with Cordae and Anderson .Paak. Those two have a chemistry on this record that always makes me come back wanting more lmao. Also banger video too I can’t wait to see more

Dude you were made for this stuff, these videos are so good. I hope you enjoy making them cause we love watching them!!!

Future on King's Dead.... turned that amazing song into a meme, just because he wanted to have an asthma attack in the studio (also, i like the saturation 2 vinyl in the background)

My day has been blessed with this video!!!!! Keep up the good work! 💪😮‍💨

it's crazy that this was recommended to me, feels like i'm finally discovering a youtuber i can get excited about again

When it comes to features in Hip Hop Donda & Astroworld are absolute treasure troves. Almost all of the features on these records fit perfectly into the songs and their feature doesn‘t feel distinct, but like a natural part of the record. Which imho is the best type of feature. I also really really love Jay-Z‘s feature on Mr. Carter. Besides matching the songs energy perfectly, he is also a Mr. Carter, just like Wayne. Love meta stuff like that. And lastly to name something outside of the Hip Hop realm, the new Kavinsky Album. Idk any of the features from that Album but I know none of the songs would be as fucking amazing as they are (seriously guys go check it out. 10/10 Album idk how it doesn‘t have millions of streams), without these talented vocalists. I guess thats also a type of feature. Totally obscure, yet incredibly talented features.

Great video again SmallBites! Love the Pulp Fiction reverence

i love the detail in these videos. 3:18 Super Common is great 🔥😂

Bladee on 7 roses is fye. As well as Black Kray on Friday nite. (Also I love how you showed the piñata posse cut, so many legendary verses on that)

I love me some song features. Especially every single Gorillaz track featuring Cartoons

Best bits from this video 1:12 Bites Doing The Reals 1:24 SONG 2.0 BY INFOTASTIC (and division of red media) 3:20 KanYe Wizzle & Jazzy And ColdGuy 4:15 Guy Explodes(but wait for it) 5:46 Guy Dies From Shock 6:27 Meet The Chainsmokers 6:52 Chainsmoker Security 6:58 Drowning But With Adele 7:25 Jay Z Goes 7:29 Jay Z Comes Back 7:43 Bites Learns School 8:33 Bites Gets Punch By.... Idk

Kanye's Feature on his Remix on "This Ain't a Scene, It's An Arms Race" is the wooooorst verse I have ever heard hands down.

The reason Drake's "Don't Matter To Me" is so hated by Michael Jackson fans is simply because Drake put Autotune on Mike's vocals. Autotune. On Michael Jackson. The same Michael Jackson who is considered to be one of, if not the greatest vocalist of all time.

longest posse cut of all time.. "we are the world" by Michael Jackson & friends🤣

Man I love how much sonic music you put in the background

Danny brown's Really doe is probably my favourite features on a song. Hearing Earl Sweatshirt, Kendrick, AND Ab Soul all on the same track was just incredible to me

Love you bro. Continue thriving!

The slushy joke was the cherry on top for me

Drug Parade is one of Flatbush Zombie’s CRAZIEST Songs sonically till Danny Brown

My favorite kind of feature is the instrumental feature (dunno if that's the actual name), where an artist already known for their instrumental work does/contributes to the instrumental for another artist's song. I don't know where this first started popping up, the only example I know off the top of my head is when Mick Gordon (who did the OSTs for DOOM2016 and DOOM Eternal) worked with Motionless In White for the song Scoring The End Of The World

I’ll be the obligatory “Kendrick on control”

alone by sleeping with sierens is so good. im screaming along (because i can't sing) for must of the song. and then mgk comes on and i want to just fast forward through it.

this is kinda cool how you added effects in all of the introductions 3:20

ty dolla sign is literally like a blessing and a curse to a kanye song

Omg the IRS veggie tales reference lollll

Jon Anderson on King Crimson's Lizard is my favorite rap feature

dude you are SO talented!

these videos are super fun dude great job!!!

Hey, an onlysmallbites upload! Yessssss, I hope you'll do a video on BROCKHAMPTON next. :)

Some of my favorite features are: André 3000 on Come Home, Sixteen, Pink Matter, Solo Reprise, & Hello Capital Steez on Survival Tactics Eminem on Renegade Kendrick Lamar on Control, Nosetalgia, & NMPILA Earl Sweatshirt on Really doe Big KRIT on 1Train Guapdad 4000 on DragonBall Durag Remix AZ on Life's A B El-P on the Last Huzzah Rick Ross on Devil In A New Dress Biggie on Flava In Ya Ear remix Chief Keef on Nightcrawler Busta Rhymes on Look At Me Now Some bad ones as well for fun: ASAP Ant on Bath Salts Big Sean on Who I Am Swizz Beats on Lord Lorz Lord Jessie Reyez on Nice Guy and much more I may add later idk

I love looking at the art versions of album cover and name them in my head

Daily reminder that Gunna's first name is actually Feat.

I used to watch this channel when you had 1.5k subs and look how far you went!

Respect for putting flava in ya ear remix (biggie's feature) in the amazing ones, I thought nobody knows it

It’s so interesting to see Ty Dolla $ign’s features being so huge

Bro this guy needs more ATTENTION. Highly underrated. 👍

Good video but I think you put too many random SFX all over the place that makes it feel a bit off

Artist Ft. Artist is the best way to do things really.

those possy reminded me of the megacollabs by discpile like "we don't play" and "how we roll" with 30. yes, 30. different producers who are all part of discpciple and each doing their own part in the song. also reminded me of METHHEAD FREESTYLE by lil darkie (which is hella fire btw), where every one in their "spider gang" is listed indiviually (around 10 artists, but still alot)

Another fun fact.. wouldn't you guys say that Kanye West "All of the lights" (was another Posse cut) what's mind blowing is that all those people he used was just to sing the hook and nothing else 🤦🏾‍♂️😂😂 what a waste.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

An example is the Travis Scott and Ed Sheeran collaboration for Antisocial. It’s such a good song 🎶

Is that a Shad album i see in the background? Very nice

Andre 3k, Busta Rhymes, Eminem, Black Thought, Kool G Rap, Lil Wayne, Kendrick & J.Cole kill it in any song they're featured on.

The biggest posse cut has to be Rolling 110 Deep by DJ Kay Slay. It literally has 110 verses and is 40 minutes long

One of my fav secret features was J.I.D on Mac Miller’s Self Care, he was some of the adlibs and omg they were amazing

I love this channel so much

Travis got the killer features‼️

Love the veggie tales IRS feature on this video

Your sound effects are making me think my AirPods are running out of battery haha

Onlysmallbites always makes classics

"How my friends look at me when I tell them im traffic" 😀

I always thought that the title of a song should stand by itself, I think it looks really weird and sometimes it’s just dumb like for example: Songtitle (feat. Artist) [feat. Artist]

I always figured those in the music biz pushed features in order to promote lesser-known artists on their label.

Getting Kellin Quinn and Tyler Smith on the Sonic Frontiers boss themes was amazing.

skepta being on praise the lord with Asap Rocky was amazing

Both daft punk and justice always hid their features until their 4th album

Loved the SB2H bit

Most insane "secret feature" has to be Kendrick on "yeah right" by Vince staples

rick ross on devil in a new dress goated feature

7:09 Kedalos with Exodus: *Yo bass nation, I know what we're gonna do today!*

I think my favourite example of a non-rapper featuring on a rap song is John Darnielle on Aesop rock’s coffee. It feels like it absolutely should not work but it does

All Of The Lights from Ye has like 13 features

The Jay Z "goblins" bit killed me

That shit Kendrick & Wayne did on Mona Lisa was legendary

Are we gonna forget about “third eye shit” by Joey badass that has like 12 features

I really love the pivot you've made back into more commentary based videos after your 'basically' videos where it feels like you're now logically merging the two into one so as to make something new. you're a natural at talking and your style gives you such a great edge. i'm super grateful i found you cus of those 'basically' videos but still a little sad to see you're quite underrated even now ahaha. keep killing it all the same, i appreciate the time and care you put into each upload. shoutout.
