Maybe something like this?

class music(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.lst = {}
    def __setattr__(self, name, value):
        self.__dict__[name] = value

array = []
array.append(music())
array.append(music())

# begin quoting your code
array[0].artist = 'genesis'
array[0].album = 'foxtrot'
array[0].songs = ['watcher', 'time table', 'friday']
array[1].artist = 'beatles'
array[1].album = 'abbey road'
array[1].songs = ['come', 'something', 'maxwell']
# end quoting your code

print array[0].artist
print array[1].artist
print array[0].songs
print array[1].songs
