Default Saving music to USB so it reads on the screen

Ok so i have a ton of music on a USB stick im using on my 14 Ultra problem is the touch screen boom audio doesn't tell you what it is just number 1 2, 3 4 etc is there any way to save it on the USB so it actually tells you what the song is 1,2,3,4 ok when you only have cpl songs but when you have hundreds not so good hard to remember that metalica is song 150

I don't know what I am doing different.....

I use a 16gb thumb drive....

I download my music via MP3 Rocket.

I drag and drop all my selected music to the thumb drive.

When I plug it into the bike... I get not only a song description... I even get album art on my 6.5GT HU..

I can select by genre, or tracklist, or artist. . etc....

to OP: seems like you are missing what they call the MP3 tags. do some research on the web. There are different tools (freeware) like MP3TAG out there that allows you to put the artist, title, album, genre and what not on each file.

I figured it out for the most part using the album taglist etc i guess i was just thinking on the main screen where you see 1,2,3,4,5 etc mine all say empty however if i go to the find tab look under all list or album everything is there i just figured it would all show on the first screen.
