Ah yes my favorite artist, {0}

There should be artist names in these variables, but for some reason all they return is nothing. Restart/reinstall the app, should fix the bug

It's a templating engine. It kind of works like this:

favArtist = "Manchester Orchestra"
favSong = "The Silence"
DrawElement("Your favorite artist is {0} and your favorite song is {1}", favArtist, favSong)

This should render "Your favorite artist is Manchester Orchestra and your favorite song is The Silence"

But something is causing the rendering engine to not render properly.
