Disliked Release Radar artists keep appearing

[mich_23]

In order to make my Release Radar more accurate, I always select "I don't like this artist" when it recommends a song by an artist I don't listen to (anymore). However, it doesn't seem to have any actual impact on the playlist. These artists continue to appear. The only difference is that their songs function like unavailable tracks do on playlists. They're in gray font and they automatically skip. But they still hog the playlist. Considering I use Spotify a lot and I listen and follow lots of different artists, I don't think this is happening due to the lack of other possible recommendations.

Is there a way to solve this so that I can improve my Release Radar?

Hey there @jmoverpeck,

Thanks for posting about this here in the Community!

If you haven't already, it'd be a good idea double checking that you aren't following the artist whose songs you're seeing. If you are, try unfollowing them, then unfollowing and following again your Release Radar playlist to shake things up.

Keep in mind that as an alternative, you can start afresh with a new account - there are steps on how to do that in this Spotify Answer. There's also a helpful Spotify Answer explaining how to transfer your music over from your original account. If you go ahead with this, make sure to cancel your subscription in your old account if you're on Premium.

Let us know how it goes! We'll be right here if you need more help.

Have a lovely day 🙂

exactly.. i lost my excitement for fridays..

[tarkotarko]

yes i feel the same, especially your last paragraph..

[tarkotarko]

yes, this is exactly what i think too.. why we should delete our accounts?

SPOTIFY should tell us WHY there is a REMOVE option, instead deleting our accounts.

REMOVE option

clearly says

"NEXT TIME WE WON'T RECOMMEND SONGS LIKE THAT IN RELEASE RADAR"

but it keeps coming back every week again and again..

i think we should NOT delete our accounts

i think SPOTIFY should care about this issue..

exactly..

[tarkotarko]

[tarkotarko]

[tarkotarko]

Sootify is the one who should start a new vision of RR. Why do we have to start a new account? My liked music is erasing by spotify in RR and my disliked music is added by spotify in RR.
