I still don't understand when to use caps and when to use lowercase.

For example, Width = width

What am I telling it to do over here?

U use Capital letter when you refer to your backing field or rather property and lower when to the parameter in your constructor. In C# 5.0 it was mandatory to put "this" in front of that and you still can do it to help you understand how things work.

Example this.With = width;
or

public ArtistModel (string name) { this.Name = name; }
