Report Albums on Wrong Artist Page

[meahtenoha]

Right now we don't have a great way to collect information about errors in our data from our users in an actionable format. This was one key learning from Line-In, and something that we would look to improve with future features.

If you're an artist and your music  ends up on a different artist profile, or if another artist’s music appears on your profile, we can get that fixed for you quickly. You have two options for addressing these errors—either reach out to your distributor or label and follow their instructions, or contact the Spotify for Artists support team and let us know that there’s music on the wrong artist profile. We’ll follow up quickly to get the details we need to correct the error.

You can report mismatched content if you see it live on Spotify, but we recently made it easier for you to catch these errors before they’re visible to listeners: you can see upcoming releases within your Catalog in Spotify for Artists. If you notice an incorrect release there—or you don’t see a release that you were expecting—you can follow the same steps as above.

We’re working with distributors and labels to implement solutions that improve the accuracy of our catalog. There are millions of artists on Spotify delivering over 20,000 tracks per day, so it’s likely that there are artists out there with the same or similar names. We recommend using a distributor that enables you to deliver music with a specified artist ID so it's added to the right artist page and there is no guesswork. We've highlighted preferred distributors who are using best practices to reduce metadata problems.

The page of artist "Top" consists of two different artists. Three songs from the link below should be catagorized under a different artist.

Hello!

This album is in the wrong place:

https://open.spotify.com/album/071diE0s32x48xIIhEs5WS

It is not a Nancy Wilson's album, just one violinist is a lady called Nancy Wilson

https://open.spotify.com/artist/2JfVCMa3FlvQRlLT5uH9zb

Thank you!

The following album has been improperly added to the group "Guttane"

link to album: https://play.spotify.com/album/7qbyDjSQtKu59zGNyt6Dzo

I have no link to where this album should go, but this is not part of Guttane.

I am the contact person for Guttane here in Norway and we have not recorded or released any albums in 2016.

The new release Phantom by (I think a rapper) Keats

https://open.spotify.com/album/5ViC2LsGqrZERnUr1l42GG

has been placed in the band page of Keats, the UK synthrock band from the 80's

The artist (Björn Johansson) attributed to this album (Discus Ursi) is the wrong one.

It is another artist with the same name who should be attributed to Discus Ursi: Björn Johansson , a musician from Melleröd, Sweden. He has two albums on Spotify, both are  attributed to the "wrong" Björn Johansson:

https://open.spotify.com/album/3OlJr419uSs1DVE2uhzEFf

and

The new Seaside EP is on the wrong Seaside artist page:

ep: https://open.spotify.com/album/450OK7xbZbVWiQotq13YJM

Danger is a french electronic musician, not a russian rapper (why don't this russian guy use cyrillic letters when all titles are in russian?)

[mdenharing]

I have tried everything to ask Artist department to remove tracks that don't belong on our band page but no answer or action. Started with that months ago. Really frustrating. New release came out today and another band with almost the same name seems to have a release out today as well. What are the odds? I'm thinking of pulling my songs off of Spotify now.

[sthlmsongs]

https://open.spotify.com/album/2TgAXOw66wqAfruj9VRj2c

The Heartbeat Band does not appear on this record.

Please move it elsewhere if possible.

WHERE IT SHOULD GO

https://open.spotify.com/artist/5kxXv41hIEvmz0INgV2SPz

As I continue to release music, is there a way to prevent this from happening in the future? I do not want to have to keep doing this with every music release.

Thank you

Question to all of you:

Did any of you see any results by posting misplaced tracks here? I have filled in many requests for removal but no result...just wondering if it worked for any of you...thank you...

[mdenharing]

How many people are working at that team? Only one? Three months ago I already filed misplaced tracks but still no result. Contacted consumer teams here in Holland AND in the UK. They sent in URGENT requests at Content Department but still no result. Frustrating, time consuming, damaging my bands reputation by putting **bleep**ty music on our page and that for a few dimes a year...**bleep**!!!!

[rendomusic]

Hello, 

So below are all songs I have released but they are not on my profile. Their is another artist with the same name and all my music is going to his profile. Anyway we can have the music on my page?

My page: https://open.spotify.com/user/rendomusic

Yes, a few months ago I reported incorrect albums and tracks on the page of an up-can-coming artist I follow (Mabel). I didn't expect a super-timely response and do not beleive there was any reply to my post here; however, a few weeks later I did notice that the errors had been corrected. It doesn't appear they've paid any attention to your complaints though and I'm sorry to hear it. It may be that the staff is more responsive to user-submitted reports vs artists? Don't know. I was pretty specific in my successfully resolved post. Did you list the exact tracks and albums that were misplaced? (srsly asking, didn't scroll through the thread to see). Maybe mine was easier for staff to address due to the level of detail provided? Sometimes in forums like this with inadequate resources for moderation, there are guidelines for posting and when not followed exactly the "non-compliant" posts go ignored.

It seems we have three artists named "Johnnie Taylor", all of whom are incorrectly aggregated on the same artist page.

Misplaced albums:

Johnnie Taylor (TNT Inspirational artist):

Where should they go?

TNT Inspirational artist: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0rHAtAz8GooTVzuSZHh5rB

Fungji Productions artist: needs a new page

Remaining albums are correctly credited to:

Johnnie Harrison Taylor (1934 - 2000) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnnie_Taylor)

Links to compilations will need sorting out, too.

Hello,

It seems that there are two bands, one from Spain and one from France, called "Paracetamol". Each band has one album in Spotify - and they should appear on different pages since these albums are in fact from two different bands.

Link to album from the French band:

https://open.spotify.com/album/7GyLGZz0TOz8lDt8IGSH0Y

Link to album from the Spanish band:

https://open.spotify.com/album/5N2nYmeTEovqeugqmkpBiI
