Add an item song.album

[Mat314159]

Hello, Thank you very much for your project ! I use it to download the lyrics of rap songs, and I coded a little program in python to organize te lyrics in folders (artist > album > all songs). I would like to access to the album name from a song. I think it was available in previous version. Can you explain me how to use a previous version, or better, add an item song.album ? Thank you for your help ! Matteo

The song.album attribute will be added back in the future. Nevertheless, you can always access what Genius sends in the response if you access the response dict. For example:

song = genius.search_song("Rap God", "Eminem", get_full_info=True)
song_dict = song.to_dict()
print(song_dict.keys())
print(song_dict["album"])

This is how you would get the album, but right now there is a bug that makes get_full_info become False and album won't be available. You can either clone #181 and use that or use any version below 3.0.0. If you want to use an earlier version:

pip uninstall lyricsgenius
pip install lyricsgenius==2.0.2

Note that only the latest version is supported and bugs in earlier versions won't be fixed.
