Play Music app - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know if this has been brought up already but this is really annoying me, can't seem to find the answer. Does anyone know how to fix the horrible grey background that's appearing in the music app, I've attached a picture to show what I mean. I thought it was meant to display the album artwork but it doesn't do it with any of my albums. HELP!

Go to Play Music Settings > Refresh. Photo of artist should show.

Just wait it will appear...
Wrong section btw

Are you streaming or playing locally saved MP3s? If locally, then you do have to make sure that all of your music files have embedded album art. Play Music will not grab online data for "offline" files unless you also have the tracks uploaded with album art!
It won't "fill in the blanks" with completely absent album art!

I think, he doesnt mean album art. You mean the missing artist cover, do you?
I solved the problem by uploading my music library to google music. Once it was in the cloud, the play music app grabbed the artist covers online. From there on i could put any music on my phone and it grabbed the artist covers online. Give it a try

Exactly right! OK, I'll Google that and get a how to. Thanks for the suggestion!

Same with Google music
Great app, so far it has been working well. One suggestion though, it would be great if you can display the file quality on the search result page as well, that would make it a lot easier to find higher quality files instead of going through them one by one.
Next update will have it!

Someone filed a complaint about how Apollo fetched lyrics I think, so it had to be removed for a little bit.

I don't know if this has been brought up already but this is really annoying me, can't seem to find the answer. Does anyone know how to fix the horrible grey background that's appearing in the music app, I've attached a picture to show what I mean, I have the album artwork and I've tried clearing the cache and data, refreshing the app etc but still nothing. I thought it was meant to display artwork but it doesn't do it with any of my albums. HELP!

Take it nobody can help? Its just the artists pics that aren't showing. Album art is fine.

Artist pics are provided by Google... When browsing your artists tab in the app, is there an artist picture?
