Artist name doesn't display in "Browse" on Music App of macOS Catalina

When I'm using the Music App on the "Browse" tab navigating to the albums listed under New Music, none of the Artist names show. It only displays the cover art, album name and an excerpt of the album description, no artist name. So unless the artist has their name in the album artwork or you recognize album name, you've no idea what the artist is until you click into the album. On the Music App of iOS, it shows the artist name with each album, instead of the description excerpt.

Hi there, hluomadg.

I see that, when you're browsing albums for new music in the Music application on your Mac, you're not seeing the artist under the description, and I'm glad to help.

Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac -- Restart your Mac in safe mode and test how it responds. If it works while in safe mode, reboot normally and test again in your own user account. If not, continue to "How to test an issue in another user account on your Mac" below.

How to test an issue in another user account on your Mac -- If the issue is also happening in safe mode, use this article to create and test a new administrative user account. This will demonstrate if the issue is isolated to your account, or if it's system wide.

Let me know how that goes, and take care!
