[Python] ERROR: post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'

I'm using youtube-search-python to get the URLs of an array with song names but this error keeps popping up:

post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'


I'm new to Python and I've been looking around but I couldn't find nothing useful for fixing this error (at least that I understood).

This is the code that is throwing the error:

elif "open.spotify.com" == url_procesed.hostname:

try:
playlist = Playlist(client_id, client_secret)
playlist_tracks = playlist.get_playlist_tracks(url)
link_list = playlist.search_for_songs(playlist_tracks)
print(link_list)


Here's the error stack trace:

The error must be in playlist.search_for_songs because it doesn't print anything. Here is the code for all of it:
