# Feature description:

I think there should be a distinct difference in the icons that represent Composers & Artists.

### Problem solved:

When tapping the menu (3 dots) on any given track the user is met with a list of options & information. In this list resides the tagged composers & artists but sometimes I don’t know where the composers end & the artists start.

### Brought benefits:

Easily distinguish composers from artists in the list presented after tapping the 3 dots on any given song.

### Other application solutions:

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

### Additional description and context:

&nbsp;  
Above the red arrow are all composers. Below are all the artists however, the icon next to all these names is identical.

I think it could be beneficial to make it a bit more clear which values listed here are composers vs artists by giving one of those sections a different icon

Maybe the artist icon has just one silhouette or you could swap the filled vs outlined silhouette so that it’s reversed as if a “different person” was “in front”

### Screenshots / Mockup:

I think a note music silhouette like this:

Would be perfect for the composer icon

Will tweak the icons but those are alpha sorted so pure coincidence 😉 And an artist can be a track artist, an album artist and a composer and any combination of those.
