Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities jtfromCompton,

I understand that you're unable to access some song from a specific artist. I use Apple Music daily myself, so I understand your concern, and I'd be glad to help.

If you had the songs downloaded or as part of a playlist and you had a lapse in your subscription to Apple Music, you'd want to remove the songs and try to download them again. Once a subscription is not renewed, you lose access to that data on your device. That information is explained in the terms and conditions under section "I".

If you've already tried this and the issue still remains, let's go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, tap on your Apple ID and sign out. Once you're signed out, restart your device and go back to Settings > iTunes & App Store and sign in. This step will temporarily remove any music you’ve saved for offline listening, you will have to redownload all the music saved for offline manually again. Once thats complete, check to see if the issue remains.

Let me know how this goes.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day!
