Music library album covers wrong

The album covers for the bands/artists in my music library changed after I backed to my Mac mini! How do I correct this problem? I have an iPhone 13 not a 8s plus!!!!

Hey Eric just a little update I call Apple support and was on the phone with them for 2+ hours getting passed from one person to another (4times) tried several things but nothing helped. The last person just told me I’d need to wipe my iPhone and do a restoration from backup. But isn’t that going to just put the same stuff back on as before? I’m not sure where to go from here. But hey thanks for your input I wish I had a better report to pass along. When I get a final solution I’ll post it here so maybe it could help someone else
