Yes the tap feature on that particular thing say artist name or album will open all the artist songs & albums respectively. This can be modified to include other things also according to the formatting which you desire which will have the impact corresponding to that field; say if composer name is added that then tapping on composer field will open all songs of the composer which would otherwise take few more taps to open.
But my main concern is only about artist name & album.
About the text being long for scrolling, first of all for 90% of the songs the album artist-album name fits into the given area and for the remaining 10% you may allow it to scroll (or not), but this scrolling is continous and in most cases the aritst name will still be visible (though incomplete) for us to be able to tap on it.
About mis-taps, I think the album name, artist name in most cases cover sufficient are to neglect and mis-tap; and the text on which we have to tap on in not that large to gather mis-taps.
For more clarity about how this work, you can see oto music player or retro music player; they have the feature of tapping on the artist name to show all songs by the singer. I don't include multiple artist tap support on that and also no album tap support.
Or Youtube music has mutiple artist tap support
