The image contains two partitions.
1. boot - This partition is Fat32 format and can be R/W by Linux/Windows/MacOS. It contains system startup files.
2. rootfs - This partition is EXT4 format and can only be R/W by Linux. It contains RaspiOS, moOde and Linux kernel files.
I would not recommend storing song files on the boot media because (1) installing a new image overwrites the boot media and thus song files would need to be copied over again and (2) you can't easily copy files to the rootfs partition unless you have a Linux box.
I would try using a Surveillance grade uSD Card (link below) as the boot media and a USB drive formatted as Fat32 for storing song files. This provides reliability, performance and ease of use for managing song files plus your song files won't be overwritten when upgrading to a new image :-)
