It is up to the artist and their record label to have good faith and mark their own music as explicit. 

 

If you find an explicit song without the tag, it means the artist did not mark the "explicit" box when sending their music to Spotify.

Hi!  You can contact Spotify by going to their contact form to report incorrect song information.  Go to this link and follow the step by step guide I made for you below.  I hope this helps!

As a shop owner I am more concerned about the music my customers are hearing.  It does not make for a good experience if grandma has a heart attack in my store becuase Spotify can't check their songs.  It's not just one or two.  Nearly every playlist I try to use has songs not labeled explicit that should be.

but like i think we should be able to turn a song explicit on our side like as a warning the same way you can remove/hid songs in playlists
