Trouble with mp3 thumbnails when putting on Galaxy S10

So say I convert 10 audio files from YouTube videos in to mp3s and put them all in 1 folder. Within that folder they all have their own thumbnails which match the videos they came from.
I then copy these to the SD card of my Galaxy S10.
I download Samsung Music as I noticed i had no audio player on there. There's say 7 of the files that all have the same thumbnail with only 3 others having their own. So basically 4 are correct in total and the other 6 are the same as one of the others.
Why?

The thumbnails you see on the PC - stored in the Windows thumbnail cache - may not be also stored in the .mp3 files ID3v2 tag. If not, they won't be transferred to the S10.
Does Samsung Play display any album_art stored in the tag? If not, it may try to generate a thumbnail itself. Are the 7 identical thumbnails pictures of the original album the tracks were released on?

I'm using Samsung Music.Samsung Music does display album art yes, on my phone.The 7 identical tracks are not from the same album or artist. A couple are some DJ sets with compilations (different DJs even), another is a solo artist, in fact there's a few of those. They all seem to share 1 thumbnail.0
