Derived Tags

Returns the top 50 tags associated with an artist, aggregated by relevance score. Unlike {id}/tags (which returns only tags directly assigned to the artist), this endpoint also pulls in tags from the artist's albums/releases and combines them with directly-assigned artist tags, summing occurrence counts into a single relevance score per tag. Results are ordered by score descending and capped at 50.

Use this when: you want a broader, ranked view of what an artist is "about" — including genre/mood tags inherited from their catalogue — rather than just the tags an admin/system explicitly attached to the artist record. Good for recommendation surfaces, genre chips on an artist page, or "more like this" logic based on tag overlap.
