Some songs not displaying in results when searching in Instagram Music feature (Spotify)

[Pppppp4]

• Hi! Does anyone know how sharing music via Instagram works? I have accessed the 'music' feature via Instagram Stories (the one in which you choose a song and it plays over your photo/etc), however, certain songs don't come up in the results at all. I wonder if this is due to licensing or something?

My band released a song a few weeks ago and it still hasn't shown up in those results and I just assumed maybe there was a delay, but another band managed it today with their song released yesterday.

Just wondering if anyone knows what's up with this and if it's a licensing thing so I can mention it to our label. 

Thanks!
