The Artist Name does not appear on my iPhone even though it appears on iTunes?

I have an iphone 7 plus, up to date, works great no problems, the only issue it does have is, some songs that i purchase, do not show the artist's name under the the song title. The number 1 thing i thought of doing is, going to iTunes and right clicking on the song that has such issue, then i click "song info" which lets me edit the information, and even though i add the artist, it still does not appear on my iphone. Is the a way to fix this? Does anyone else have such problem?

This my music library on my phone, notice how mostly all my songs have the artists on the bottom of the song title, except for Chanel by Frank Ocean (great song by the way).

This is my "song info" on iTunes, has artist name and everything.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

Good afternoon KrypticHypo,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you are having an issue with one song not showing the artist's name on your iPhone, is that correct?

The first step would be to delete the purchased song from your iPhone, restart the iPhone, and redownload the purchased content.


Delete music, movies, and TV shows from your device

Redownload music


If the artist name still does not appear, then you could delete the song again from the iPhone.

Then manually sync the song from your iTunes or Music library to your iPhone.
