I'm assuming you need help with part two. Let me know if this is not the case.

Great use of camelCase to differentiate the member variables. Them being called 'member' variables is why we use an m and not an n :) - Easy mistake to make.

I'd use 'brand' or something similar here instead of 'Song' personally, I feel that it makes things confusing

Brand(String Sony) {
    nName = Sony;
}

BECOMES

Brand(String brand) {
    mBrandName = brand;
}

You are not able to pass the test because you are not doing what the question asks of you - Don't return a 'Brand' datatype, return something else :) It's not too complicated this one, it's just a simple getter.

Also, make sure that it is name as the task requests :)

Good luck!

I got the answer:

      package com.example.model;

public enum Brand {
    JVC("JVC"),
    SONY("Sony"),
    APPLE("Apple"),
    COBY("Coby");

    private String mDisplayName;

    Brand(String displayName) {
        mDisplayName = displayName;
    }

    public String getDisplayName() {
        return mDisplayName;
    }
}
