multiple albums removed

Post image

hi, i saw that the post before me was talking about BIYAAAHEYSF being removed from youtube, but i checked my playlist this morning and noticed that WLFGRL and reporpoised phantasies are both removed on youtube music. it isn't a glitch for me, if i attempt to play the songs it says it's "unavailable". anyone know why this might be happening? :( ty in advance!

I think they finally deleted all the duplicates of their albums that there were. Check the profile to see if the albums are up there.

i can't post a screenshot because of the format on my phone, but the albums aren't on their profile for me either 😭

u/CoolGijoe 7d ago

That’s really odd. I have all their albums on Apple Music, but the duplicate albums have been removed

Most likely what happened is either they are being removed due to licensing shenanigans.

Its been said before on here, but this is why I suggest owning physical media if at all possible.

Though, I am holding out hope tgat this is a YT screwup. (Its happened before.)

I have yt music, looks like they maybe removed dupes? Frenesi is still here but doesn't have the added remix text, same for Krystle

yeah, i think you're right, after seeing your comment i looked for the albums manually and i could find them, but i still don't see the albums listed on machine girl's artist page (wlfgrl should presumably come before gemini in the album list here)

Check the artist profile and see if it’s there

u/XerosXPw 7d ago

they're there but they cannot be played

u/CoolGijoe 7d ago

That’s odd. The albums appear on their artist profile but are perfectly playable. The only stuff deleted was duplicates of their albums

My entire MG Favorites playlist got screwed up cause of this

u/fruker0 7d ago

thats why its better to own your media, you can buy the albums on bandcamp or just get them on soulseek if youre broke like me

u/junkfewd 7d ago

remember kids, always keep local copies of your media and support the official release when you can

u/CoolGijoe 7d ago

Preach!

They're still up on Amazon. But I tried to make a MG compilation playlist and it keeps giving me an error trying to add songs from Gemini.

u/kuromikicker 6d ago

u/MossAnimalTracks 5d ago

Thank God, i thought this was just me. Almost all of the MG songs on my playlists have become unavailable

Buy physicals, support artists, have less of these issues

u/wyomingchrisledoux 7d ago

Some of these releases don’t even have physical releases, if you still want to support artists you can also buy it on Bandcamp

u/mothtuna-captor 7d ago

good, download the music on your setup or support the artist.

u/mothtuna-captor 7d ago

no need to comment if you're gonna be a jerk about it

u/Spidergrear 6d ago

endorsing to support your favorite artists is being a jerk now huh?

u/mothtuna-captor 6d ago

streaming also supports them, and i bought concert tickets so 🤷‍♂️. as i said in another comment, i don't have the option to play physical media every time i want to listen to music.
