I'm sorry for the barrage of links heading this way. The last time I did something like this on a forum, I got banned from the site for posting "spam" (however, it was all internal links to the sites' own message boards). I didn't care much about that forum, I laughed, moved on and haven't looked back. This does make me reluctant to post this issue and this number of links, and I honestly don't want to be banned from this forum!!! So, mod's/admin, please take pity on me, I really like Kodi and these forums!!!
So, the normal parts: Windows 10 Home, 64bit, Kodi 15.1, 12gb RAM
I've got a nice little quandry.
I have one artist (Jai Waetford) I know of that has been scanned in to the library, however, the artist doesn't show up in the library artist view.

However, searching for the artist in Kodi results in this:

And going into the artist result from there gives me the albums:

At this point, I fired up Firefox and used SQL Lite addon to view the Kodi library.

artist view database, where it shows up:

I have a few music videos of this artist, so going off of the search results above, I bring up the context menu, to go to the artists' music videos:

Then, I bring up the context menu to go back to the artist albums, and that works ok, brought me there.
So! I decide to go nuclear, close Kodi, temporarily rename the music database, reopen Kodi and scan only this artist in.

I'm very lost on what is happening and going on, and/or any ways to fix this issue, any suggestions?
(I'm really hoping this isn't my last post here and I can continue visiting... :/ )
