Log into your MySql account and write a simple select query that proves that your new record has been added to the artist table.
SQL
SQL stands for Structured Query Language, is a form of communication that uses queries structured in a specific format to store, manage & retrieve data from a relational database.
Queries
A query is a type of computer programming language that is used to retrieve data from a database. Databases are useful in a variety of ways. They enable the retrieval of records or parts of records, as well as the performance of various calculations prior to displaying the results. A search query is one type of query that many people perform several times per day. A search query is executed every time you use a search engine to find something. When you press the Enter key, the keywords are sent to the search engine, where they are processed by an algorithm that retrieves related results from the search index. Your query's results are displayed on a search engine results page, or SER.

Queries are statements or commands that you use to retrieve, manipulate, or manage data stored in a database. They allow you to interact with the database, perform operations such as retrieving specific records, updating existing data, inserting new data, or deleting records.
Queries are written in a specific database query language, such as SQL (Structured Query Language), which is widely used for relational databases. SQL queries are composed of keywords, operators, functions, and clauses that define the desired operations on the database.
Here are a few common types of queries:
- Select Query: Retrieves data from one or more tables based on specified criteria.
Example: `SELECT * FROM customers WHERE country = 'USA';` - Insert Query: Inserts new records into a table.
Example: `INSERT INTO employees (name, age) VALUES ('John Doe', 30);` - Update Query: Modifies existing records in a table.
Example: `UPDATE products SET price = 10.99 WHERE id = 1;` - Delete Query: Removes records from a table.
Example: `DELETE FROM customers WHERE id = 5;` - Join Query: Combines records from multiple tables based on a related column.
Example: `SELECT * FROM orders INNER JOIN customers ON orders.customer_id = customers.id;`
