We can't play this until you allow this artist in the Spotify phone app

I can not play some songs from the Windows 10 Spotify program nor my Android LG G4 phone. I used to be able to play Thunder (by Imagine Dragons) and Renegades (by X Ambassadors). However, they will not play at all. Others in my family do not have problems with this at all. These songs used to work just fine, I don't know what happened.
I also get "We can't play this until you allow this artist in the Spotify phone app" message in my PC. I have tried liking and disliking the song and artist (follow/unfollow the artist) and nothing

this solved it for me.

for some reason some artists were "hidden" and "not allowed" to be played. I do not know how artists ended up on this list.
