spotify widget not updating

So my Spotify widget won’t sync with what I’m currently playing; I tried removing the widget then replacing it, I deleted my Spotify app then reinstalled it, and I also restarted my iPhone hoping all three of those combinations would work, but it didn’t. It was working earlier perfectly until recently it froze on one artist so I did the whole process mentioned previously plus I even signed out of my iCloud then signed back in and now it’s stuck on this option no matter how many times I play something on my Spotify app, my widget won’t sync with what I’m currently playing. Please help!

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
