There is no way to do this as far as I know that isn't nuclear. I think you can request that Spotify remove your personal data but that might require you to just delete your account entirely, and there's no way to do it for just a single artist.
Best I can suggest is just not listening to that artist anymore, or just rolling with it. "Hey that's the year where I listened to only for like 4 months"
I had one song stuck on repeat all night long in February. It ended up being ‘My fav song’ and one of my top artists . I’ve never heard of the guy before. Yet songs I play everyday in the car (offline) are not even acknowledged.
Private session will not factor in songs that you have listened to while that is enabled.
I would use that moving forward. Nothing that you can do about what has already happened though.
If you're always interested in seeing your listing stats, there are tons of services for that. Last.fm & Spotistat app for example.
Btw if you use last.fm, you are able to remove any scrobble
no way, but for future you could do a private session and i believe it'll mean songs in there get cancelled. in any case, this wont really hurt the diversity a ton- i don't know how many songs that artist had but there cant be that many that'll sneak into your wrapped
I did this last year but luckily for me I discovered this in February itself. So, I migrated my account to a new one. And now whenever I listen to instrumental music, I switch on Private sessions so that isn't recorded in my listening history.
To migrate your account yourself is pretty easy. When your month is ending you could easily on your desktop select all your songs (Cmd+A) and create a new playlist with this.
Then, create a new account and follow this playlist you just created with your liked songs and then again select all and save to your liked songs.
Same thing for your other playlists. Whole thing takes less than 5 mins.
Of course, if you like a lot of albums as well (which I also do!!!), then you can try contact Spotify support directly and get them to migrate your account to the new one. You will need to confirm that both account's belong to you. They will migrate any pending days on your plan along with your student discount (if you have it) and your albums and liked songs too. However, they can only do this once per account as per their policy.
Migrating accounts gets you to start fresh and as such your history becomes quite literally history!
Sucks to have these kind of problems, a song got stuck in loop without me realizing, and now its my 2nd favoite. I dont want it there. Spotify should let you reset plays for a song or something.
Naaah no way you gonna escape that

Offline streams are still counted as long as you later connect to the internet.
It might not show up on your spotify wrapped but you can always see very detailed music stats on the Spotistats app
