Find the "Search" button from your Spotify web player or Spotify app. You are allowed to search for songs, artists, albums, playlist, genres, podcast and videos. Moreover, you can also search for Spotify users. However, for some Spotify users who don’t have a display name, you can search "spotify:user:" followed by their Spotify username without spaces.
Note: Spotify Advanced Search enables you to find the songs you are looking for more accurate. To take a few example, use "[]" to highlight what you need, if spaces are included in your search term, you can use the quotation mark, [genre:"smooth jazz"]. You can also use "AND", "OR" or "NOT" to filter the result.
