Hi i'm wondering one thing. I'm new to coding so be nice.

I downloaded the code from github, i'm testing it on a server, the genius token has been added.

I managed to get beautiful soup and python downloaded for my server. When I use the command python3 get-lyric.py [changes] [2pac] I get told that the song (or any) cannot be found. I have not implemented the spotify side of the code. My understanding was i could test the genius part manually before plugging in the spotify part. What am I doing wrong? Thanks a bunch in advance!

Hi!

Yeah if you're passing the song and artist name it shoulnd't need to go through dbus stuff, so you'de be fine to just call Genius API.
I'm wondering -- are you running the command with the square brackets around the artist and song name?
