Thanks 211! Interesting... I wonder if this "popular track" information is sourced from regional data anyway, or if users across regions have seen the same hot tracks in the past.I can see the stars in the Music app on macOS Monterey. UK here.
Show Star Ratings is in Preferences. You wont see them on your phone unless you long press on a song and select "Show Ratings" from the menu.
