Songs randomly grayed out

[420lol]

So I’ve had a few songs by a rapper named L.S.D in my playlist for quite a while. And all of a sudden when I went to check my playlist all of his songs were grayed out for me. They played before now they’re locked, this music group is really old I doubt they would really care. Any ideas on why they suddenly are grayed out 

[420lol]

Also when I try to search the rapper or any of their songs up nothing comes up like they randomly disappeared from the platform

Hi there!

When songs are greyed out, it means i isn't available in your region. That seems unlikely, because you were able to listen to the songs before.

It also could mean that the songs were removed from Spotify.

Hope this helps!

Yes it is really confusing how I was able to play them before and all of a sudden. When I go to the artists profile only one song is there. I wish I could get more information about why this rap group just disappeared, why would it randomly not be available in my region

Hey again @420lol,

Thank you for your reply and for the URI.

We tried it from our end and we get the same behavior. We want all the world’s music on Spotify, but availability can vary over time and between countries, depending on the permissions from rights holders.

We add new content to Spotify every day, so if you can’t find something you’re looking for right now, it may reappear soon.

If you have any questions we're always one reply away.

Take care!

But i was able to listen to his music like a few days or maybe a week ago.

Hey again @420lol,

Thank you for getting back in touch with us.

We understand but sometimes content can get removed due to the artist, label etc.

Hopefully the content will come back so that you can enjoy it again 🙂

Cheers!

Well the thing with LSD is that it's a pretty small group. It's almost impossible to find any information about them or literally anything. I don't really think that music that they made like 30 years ago would they randomly block in some countries. Do you think it could of been the rap group LSD or anything/anyone else?
