I would like to ban him from the Apple Music app. I simply don't want him to ever appear in any search results for me. How can I do this?

I found an article saying how to but I've never tried it so I can't say how well it works.

From the article

Blocking an artist on Apple Music is a relatively simple process. To do so, first open up your Apple Music library. Once there, click on the “For You” tab in the upper left-hand corner. From here, scroll down and select the “Preferences” option. In the Preferences window, find the “Artists You Don’t Want to Hear” section and type in the name of the artist you wish to block. Once you have done this, click “Save” and the artist will be blocked from your library.

Edit: I can't figure out how to make this work so maybe it's one of those fake help websites just so they can hit you with ads...

Unfortunately, this does not work. Perhaps it has some hidden settings, maybe some configuration file.
It's weird that there's no simple way to block an unwanted artist.

I think the only option would be to dislike the artists songs so that it will suggest music by the artist less.
