Columns UI - Hide Artists with less than a certain number of songs

Because of a single playlist, I have over 100 artists with just one or two songs appearing my library. There's just about no case where I will ever select these artists in the "Artist" sort field, thus I would like to remove them from that menu. I've messed around with the "filter" a little bit but have not had any success. Could someone help me or at least get me started?

I've managed to come up with a filter that would put everything I DON'T want in the artist view, as I realized just about all of the artists are identifiable by two compilation albums, thus

%album% IS "Mango Smoothie" OR %album% IS "Galaxy News Radio"

Now my question is, how do I invert this? I tried using NOR, ISNOT, ISNT, IS_NOT, !IS, etc so I'm running out of ideas on how to do that. Maybe the answer is incredibly obvious to someone else, but I didn't see much inversion from searching google.
