So i have two tables: artists and tracks. I want to relate them or join them so that i can select artists who did a specific track or track which had specific words in it. I was thinking that i need to relate the id's but i am not sure. These are the tables, and i have limited them up to 5 rows because they are too long
SELECT * FROM artists LIMIT 5;

You haven't shown any desired results so the following is just a guess, based on
select artists who did a specific track
select ar.name
from tracks t
join albums a on a.id=t.album_id
join artists ar on ar.id=a.artist_id
where t.name='War'
