Local Files not on iPhone

[thecowsaysmoo42]

So I downloaded some local files and put them on a playlist on my mac and that is working fine. The problem is that the songs are now showing up on my iphone. I even created a new playlist with just local files and the playlist appears on my iphone and says it contains songs but when I tap on the playlist then it tells me to browse for music because it is empty. I have tried syncing and looking at other solutions but none of the problems seem to be quite like this one! Thanks for your help.
