I really doubt they charge. Most likely they're at the point where they only do it with people on their label or people they want to collaborate with.

A collaboration and a feature are very different.

Lol, if you're close with said artist, than, yes, that's how it works. But, in most cases, you gotta pay for a verse. That's how underground artists usually get their money from in between album sales and shows.

^A collabo is exactly that, a collaboration between two or more artists. Meaning, they worked together on the concept/sound of the song. A feature is basically a ''guest verse'', someone else dropping a verse on an already existing record.
