So, under the hood, it's not really playing the artist's radio. What's actually happening is that we're fetching some recommendations similar to an artist or a song and then playing these recommendations. There's unfortunately no Spotify API for that, so we'll rename it to something clearer. Thanks for reporting this out!
@thomaslombart Would you consider creating a tag for issues blocked by non-existent API features like this?
Yeah, it's worth creating one.

@thomaslombart But it's only playing a single song. That's got to be an error, right?
Does this strategy also explain why trying to play the generative "daylist" often will play the previous iteration of the playlist?

It's playing different artists for me, the playback doesn't end 🤔

Could you share a recording for this one? It'll make it easier to see what you mean.
@thomaslombart On the radio point, I just tried to play Bonobo radio, and this is what loaded.
And here's a video of the daylist bug.
Here's what the Spotify API says about recommendations:
It doesn't seem Bonobo is an obscure or very new artist, but it may explain why you're getting only one result. Is it consistent across all songs/artists?
For the second bug, it seems you have the shuffle option on, which may explain why it's not playing the very first song. The song should, however, be part of the playlist you just played. Is it the case?
Hey, the first issue is the same with every artist. Madonna gives me one song as well.
The second issue has to do with dynamic playlists. It plays the previous version of the playlist, rather than the current version. It queues a completely different list of songs.

Still an issue.

Description
When you request
start radio
for either a "search" result or "now playing," instead a single, random song plays. The song always seems like it could be a later member of the particular radio playlist. However, it's only one song, and playback ends immediately after.Steps To Reproduce
