V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. The selected original recording is documented in 2023. Only year precision is assigned; later album placements, annual-list appearances, reissues and different performances do not replace that release year.
The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.
For All the Dogs - original program and preceding single
The retrieved original album program identifies First Person Shooter with J. Cole and Rich Baby Daddy with Sexyy Red and SZA in October 2023. Slime You Out with SZA retains an earlier September 2023 single date. The URL resolves to the complete album despite its inherited Members Only slug.
