Some artists had very long chains, n >= 8 between them. But a lot of artists either never collaborate at all, or only collaborate with a specific group of people. Usually that group of people is a very niche sub-sub-genre of music, like bubblegum phonk.

That being said, this was an analysis of my own library, and I didn't grab the entire discography of every artist.
