Tell us what’s happening:

Use a ternary operator to check if currentTitle is truthy. If so, implicitly return currentTitle otherwise implicitly return an empty string. Assign this result to playingSong.textContent.

Then, use a ternary operator to check if currentArtist is truthy. If so, implicitly return currentArtist otherwise implicitly return an empty string. Assign this result to songArtist.textContent.

Is there a problem with my logic?

Your code so far

playingSong.textContent =currentTitle === true?currentTitle:" “;
songArtist.textContent =currentArtist === true?currentArtist:” ";

Please copy/paste all the editor code showing in the challenge from where you just linked.

 playingSong.textContent =currentTitle === true?currentTitle:" ";

Hello!

To check if title and artists are true, you don’t need to compare if they are, that’s already happening in the ternary logic. Also leave no space between the parenthesis, so they get read as an empty string, not a space.
