from albumoftheyearapi import AOTY

client = AOTY()
print(client.user_follower_count('jahsias'))

If you don't need the full functionality, you can also import only the neccesary files

from albumoftheyearapi.artist import ArtistMethods

client = ArtistMethods()
print(client.artist_albums('183-kanye-west'))

Notice artists also need their unique id along with their name
