I wrote this to rename my mp3 files to remove unwanted text like junk, backup etc. Used `renames` instead of `rename` so that new directories can be created as well.

clean_up_mp3_files.py

strip_text=['junk','backup']
for fn in glob.glob("**/*.mp3", recursive=True):
      f=os.path.abspath(fn)
      try:
        for t in strip_text:
          if t in f:
              new_f=f.replace(t,"").strip()
              os.renames(f, new_f)
              f=new_f
      except:
        pass #ignore file in use etc
print('Done!')
