Spotify has song credits too, just FYI.

In my experience, and the reason I left Tidal several years ago, is that they lean heavily into modern hip-hop, compromising relevancy for the sake of promoting "friends of the company" (Jay-Z, Beyonce, etc).

Spotify only lets you read a very reduced version of the credits of a song, and you can't click on the artist to see all of their work. On Tidal, the credits are much more extensive, and you can go deep down the rabbit hole of a producers work in one click.

More importantly though, Spotify doesn't directly link artists to bands they're in. For example, on Spotify, Billie Joe Armstrong is credited with his work on Green Day, but if you go to the Billie Joe Armstrong page, he isn't. On Tidal, each artist can also be broken down by their role on a project. For example, you can see just the songs that Paul McCartney wrote (turns out he wrote a track for Drake called Champagne Poetry in 2021... who knew). On Paul McCartney's page on Spotify he isn't even attributed to The Beatles

Unexpected writing credits like this usually indicate sampling. In this case [0], Drake sampled a song [1] that sampled another song [2] that was a cover of a Beatles song [3].
