Rate songs and other content in Music on Mac
You can assign a rating—from one to five stars—to a song, album, or music video to indicate how much you like it. You can use ratings to help you automatically create playlists or to sort and browse your music library.
Turn ratings on or off
In the Music app
on your Mac, click Songs in the sidebar.
Choose View > Show View Options, then select Rating. If the checkbox is selected, ratings are turned on.
You can also choose Album Rating to turn on album ratings; an album rating is calculated by combining all the individual song ratings.
Give an item a rating
In the Music app
on your Mac, click Songs in the sidebar.
Move the pointer over the song you want to rate, then click or drag in the Rating column to add or remove stars.
