Try this:

First cd into the directory where those mp3 files are.  Become root.  Chown
all those files to your username. The following will also change the group
id to your username as well:

chown ruben:ruben *.mp3

Then you might consider putting them in your home directory somewhere, if
they are not already.  You can do that like this, as your username, not root:

mkdir /home/ruben/mp3_files
mv *.mp3 /home/ruben/mp3_files
