This is an incredibly useful thread. Please keep updating it if possible. I'm in the position now where I will be looking for features for upcoming projects. What is the best way to contact people that you are interested in?

I have tried looking up an artists management, but it's difficult to find, and web contact info just doesn't work most of the time. Thing is, I have funding and I can pay these fools no problem if I could get in touch with them.

Also, are there any tips to working with artists that provide verses? I want to do it as a work for hire, but are there customary splits of points expected, etc? Any advice from the veterans would be appreciated.

If ur seriously interested I can get in touch with any artist in question I have had a working relationship and direct contacts .... but serious inquiries only plz . There is usually a 50% deposit required upfront for major artists and or collaborations as per splits of points typically 25% all the way up to 50% . For example TI charges 40K-60K a verse as well as 25% split in points. It all depends on the project and quality of works .

Almost always on their official twitter, just google their real twitter, they have it under their picture. Usualy it says "fro booking or features contact - email adress - serious inquiries only".

I asked for Cassidy and Lil Debbie and got an immediate repsonse

just say in your email that you are willing to pay and you'll likely get a resposne, almost certainly.

depends form person to person and you can see the rates in the first post in thsi thread. Wayne is like 75 000 $ while some upcoming acts can be 300 $ really depends who it is.
 
Bumpp.....good information in this thread fellas. I heard Fred Da Godson charges $2000 and Vado charges $10k....anybody have info on Curren$y or Stalley?
 
Anyone paying these prices are clearly out of their minds.
Vado for 10k hahaha that's a good one.
I wouldn't pay anymore than 500$ if I had an unlimited budget.

My dude got a feature off a rapper who I'm not going to mention name but he was on Interscope and Shady, for 300$.

Talk these rappers down, trust me they'll go down.

0 for The Ancient Pirate & JacKnife, let me know if you want features for free
 
A lot of the figures are untrue, especially if they come straight from the rapper's mouth.
