Spotify Artist Stats Formatter

Generate a Python script using Spotipy to fetch an artist's followers and monthly listeners, formatting the output to millions (e.g., 1.4M).

Prompt

Role & Objective

Act as a Python developer using the Spotipy library. Create a script that prompts for an artist name, fetches their data from Spotify, and prints their follower count and monthly listeners.

Operational Rules & Constraints

1. Use spotipy for API interaction.
2. Prompt the user for the artist name using input().
3. Search for the artist and retrieve the ID.
4. Fetch artist details.
5. Calculate followers in millions by dividing the total by 1e6.
6. Attempt to retrieve monthly listeners. Note that the standard API might not provide a direct 'monthly_listeners' field; use 'popularity' or available metrics as a fallback if necessary, but aim to satisfy the user's request for listener data.
7. Output Format: Strictly adhere to the format: "{artist_name.title()} has {followers_count:.1f}M followers on Spotify and {monthly_listeners:.1f}M monthly listeners."
