Spotify doesn't show similar artist tab.

Solved!

Spotify doesn't show similar artist tab.

Hello everyone,

 

Since this morning spotify doesn't show the similar artists tab for a lot of artists (see below -> Overzicht = Overview & Biografie = Biography).

Does anyone know what the problem may be?

 

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

Apologies for the delays here. We're working on getting it sorted as we speak.

Thanks everyone for your patience so far. It should be back soon, let us know if it's still not returned in an hour or two.

Does a clean reinstallation of the client make any difference? Also what country are you in?

I've already performed a complete reinstallation, but it didn't work. The strange thing is that some artists do show a similar artist tab and some don't. I'm in the Netherlands.

Same issue here. Today "similar artists" link gone.

And here on Android too. Also Android seems to have lost the bio too 

I have escalated this as an issue.

I had the same problem. I tried restarting Spotify, and so far it's seemed to work.

I am having the same problem.  Closing and restarting spotify did not make a difference.  I am in the US.

Yea, it's happening to me too. But just since this morning.

Same problem, noticed it only since today.

Same here, gone from desktop, iphone and Kindle Fire app...not happy

I'm having the same problem. Windows 7 in the US. It shows related artists for the Pixies, but no one else I've tried.  When I switch to an artist page it flashes the tab for a split second before removing it and only showing "Overview" and "Biography." This is a big deal. I'm a college radio DJ and I use Spotify A LOT to find similar artists to the stuff I play.

It's been reported to Spotify. It's Sunday so probably won't be fixed until tomorrow.

I will be cancelling my subscription if this isn't reinstated. 

Same problem since this morning in Colombia South America, I would cancelled my suscription if they don't fix the problem

I'm also missing the similar artists tab. It looks like it's there for a fraction of a second when I open an artist, but then it disappears.

Just came here to post this. The Similar Artists button flashes up for a millisecond while the page transitions from one artist to another, but disappears when the artist page finishes loading a millisecond later. (US) 

Same here, similar artist dissapear.

Same since yesterday.

I have similar issue too. Related artist flashes and dissapears.

 

Did the Spotify make some change in here?
