I don’t normally listen to much pop music, so I know I’m a bit late to the party on this one. But I’ve noticed that in modern pop music, artists will sometimes release a “normal” version of a song, then a few weeks later they’ll release the same song again, except one of the verses is replaced with a feature. It’s not a remix, it’s just the same song but with another artist singing some different lyrics.

Is there a name for this type of song? How long has this been going on? When was this trend started?

    I have no idea what you’re on about. The intention of making the song doesn’t matter.

    It you take tracks from a song and add/remove/re-arrange it into a new release. It’s a remix.

    Remix - To recombine (audio tracks or channels from a recording) to produce a new or modified audio recording.
