My Question or Issue

Recently ran into an issue where the wrong version of a song will play. First encountered this playing files on my iMac using the Spotify desktop app last week, where I would click on two totally different Christmas songs and they played the same random song from the 70s (I didn't note the names of any of the songs unfortunately).

 

The issue continued when I went to play a song that I have downloaded to my phone for offline playback. I've listened to this song a ton of times before on my phone without any issues (Butter by BTS), but for whatever reason when it came up on my playlist while I was driving yesterday, it was a remixed version feat. Megan Thee Stallion that was downloaded to my phone instead? The regular version appears in my playlist, and plays when I'm using the desktop app, but the remix is what plays when I click on this song in my Android app, complete with a different album cover which is pink instead of the typical yellow. I've tried logging out of the Android app, signing out and signing back in, wiping my cache, etc. Looks like Spotify updated 6 days ago via Google Play store but unknown if that update sparked the issue thats occuring on my phone or not.

 

Attaching screenshots from my phone that shows the regular version selected to play on my playlist, and what is playing instead, as well as the same song selected on my desktop app playing the correct version.
