I noticed that the get_library_albums method returns data mapped to incorrect keys:

{
  "artists": "Album",
  "browseId": "MPREb_TcjAa6Gjdop",
  "thumbnails": [
    {
      "height": 226,
      "url": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/ZVOHvYxy66tBHPDD4DXnypgIC7d6FSuXs706ePGrv2U7rOU2tFjbnyEGTcfmy1PbKcZwMJnRS6NAguI9=w226-h226-l90-rj",
      "width": 226
    },
    {
      "height": 544,
      "url": "https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/ZVOHvYxy66tBHPDD4DXnypgIC7d6FSuXs706ePGrv2U7rOU2tFjbnyEGTcfmy1PbKcZwMJnRS6NAguI9=w544-h544-l90-rj",
      "width": 544
    }
  ],
  "title": "Evolution Ending",
  "trackCount": "1998",
  "type": "Album",
  "year": "Naked Funk"
}

As you can see, artists is set to the value of type, then trackCount and year are shifted, with the data of the former actually missing.

It seems YouTube has changed the way these are displayed, causing a mismatch in key assignment.

I'll do a new release by the end of this week, just to see if anything else pops up by then.

In the meantime, you can always do pip install git+https://github.com/sigma67/ytmusicapi to install the latest version on your system.
