I see.

In fact, the way Spotify recommandtions work is kept a secret so we don't know exactly how the formula works. It does recommend you music that thinks that you might enjoy or like. It could have been a mistake of that algorithm. 

Hope I was able to help 🙂

Hey @user-removed, welcome to the Community.

 

Hope you are having a great time!

 

If you follow someone you would get the chance to see what they listen to and maybe get a recommandation to try their taste on music by offering you artists, albums or playlists Spotify thinks you might want to listen.

I don’t follow my dads account. Do you have any other suggestions?
