I suggest:

Leaving Artist:A as is, which would be consistent with searching for A by itself which finds all matches.
Change the wording in the tooltip to better reflect that Artist:A finds all matching, not exact matches.
Add Artist:"A" to find exact matches, which would be consistent with "A" finding exact matches of A.
