Album cover art and music details are messed up - Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML

[Android Central Question]

Hello! My problem is that I always add music info and album cover to the songs I download but lately something's not right. Some songs are okay, but some other songs don't show the right album cover, instead it's the same for every song. I have no idea what could have happened, I have already tried deleting all the songs and reuploading them to my phone, deleting cache and data but the it's the same. Please help, thank you!

Welcome to Android Central! How are you adding the album art? Are you embedding the album art using an ID3 tag editor?

Hi! Yes, I am using Mp3tag to add the album art.

Which music app are you using? The stock Music app, or Google Play Music, or something else?

I am using the basic Asus Music app.

Was it the cache and data of that music app that you cleared? Can you see if this also happens on any other music apps, like Google Play Music?

Yes, it happens with every music app, I have tried several, but same problem.

Ok, try also wiping the system cache partition: https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-9229-1-1.html

I wiped the system cache partition, but it's the same.

Where did you download the problematic songs from? Do they all have ID3 tags that look legitimate?

I have downloaded the songs from Youtube using Mp3juices.cc, honestly I don't think the problem is with the songs, because they were alright before but now everything's messed up.

All bets are off when the music track isn't from a legitimate source. It's hard to know if the ID3 tag info (if there is any) is correct, and if it can be entered or modified appropriately. (It also violates YouTube's terms of service, which is why those kinds of apps are not allowed on the Play Store.)
