For those who love ES6 and short stuff, here it's one solution:

const arr = [
  { title: "sky", artist: "Jon" },
  { title: "rain", artist: "Paul" },
  { title: "sky", artist: "Jon" }
];

Array.from(arr.reduce((a, o) => a.set(o.title, o), new Map()).values());

const arr = [
  { title: "sky", artist: "Jon" },
  { title: "rain", artist: "Paul" },
  { title: "sky", artist: "Jon" },
  { title: "rain", artist: "Jon" },
  { title: "cry", artist: "Jon" }
];

const unique = Array.from(arr.reduce((a, o) => a.set(o.title, o), new Map()).values());

console.log(`New array length: ${unique.length}`)

console.log(unique)

The above example only works for a unique title or id. Basically, it creates a new map for songs with duplicate titles.
