iPhone syncs wrong artist
Strange issue I came across, I just switched laptops, I had all my music saved onto a USB. Downloaded iTunes on my new laptop and added all my music back into my phone. I'm not even sure if that is relevant to the cause cause it's been happening to my purchased music also. It's not as much of wrong artist, it's more of the that it'll glue onto one artist for the album and stick with that. I am one of those who tamper with the tags, I like to add all the "feat. this and that" into the artist and not have it on the title. I edit that stuff in iTunes though. The issue doesn't show on iTunes, it shows on the music app on my phone. Okay so here's an example:
I'll use this as an example: Childish Gambino - The Palisades (feat. Christian Rich) [which I purchased this song and some of the songs too from the album]
so it'll be like this:
Title: The Palisades (feat. Christian Rich)
Artist: Childish Gambino
Album: Kauai
Album Artist: Childish Gambino
where the artist is just Childish Gambino, I'll go onto iTunes and right click on the song, click 'Get Info" and change it to like this:
Title: The Palisades
Artist: Childish Gambino ft. Christian Rich
Album: Kauai
Album Artist: Childish Gambino
And sync the song into my iPhone, and then this is where the issue appears. The title and artist changes but also changes the artist for every song from the artist for example, a song like Retro that's by him also, no features. On the music app it'll show "ft. Christian Rich" on that song also and every other song from Childish Gambino. I've tried everything from re-syncing every song to deleting it and re-adding it to re-install iTunes, to even cleaning my iPhone with AVG. I am about to try restoring my phone and backing it up to see if that does anything.
