Hi @awesomemac @E0xc815 thanks for your replies. @DP1 thanks for sharing these examples of homonyms artist page names. You are right, in half an hour one of our curators can solve the problem of that artist that you like so much - https://www.deezer.com/en/artist/8377. But unfortunately that is not the only one mixed. Like was said, every week we receive thousands of singles, albums sent by the distributors and when they submitted in our platform, yes, they are submitting in our catalog, they often are added to a wrong artist. We have several mechanism running to detect these incorrect ingestions plus a dedicated team of curators that everyday keeps organizing the catalog, but it is a endless task has our catalog is already getting over 100 million unique tracks. And again, like was said above, this is global problem, that affect all streaming platforms. Deezer is looking for solutions, discussion internally and externally with labels and distributors how the ingestion process can be
I can understand your frustration, seriously. I know what you mean. But, I've also tried Tidal and Qobuz and they also have the same "problems".

And if you really believe that the other providers correctly separate the different artists with the same name, you should take a closer look… I think that the suppliers (music labels, artists themselves) could do a lot to ensure that there is a clean separation. Some don't, for whatever reason. And then there are such mixtures that are annoying. The fact of the matter is that I presume you are whom those particular words are related to. That is why have you taken this personally. Speaking of Borderline, that is the kind of personality which would make such a comment as you have here. And to also spend time writing useful and precious insights on a deezer community as you have here. Taking a closer look? Lets do as you suggest as an exercise on your profile activity. An interesting specimen you are. Much like the different artists with t
