It is not clear how the editions of some of the most important artist in the world were changed. Spotify has a special product available for independent artists and music publishers, called Spotify for Artists, which is the one that manages the bands pages and bios.
The tool allows Spotify users to “claim” a band page or join the artist team to manage it.
But a page already claimed cannot be claimed again.
However, Spotify hasn’t talked about it.
