Google 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 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?

Fede's music app (wp7 styled music app from the maker of launcherpro)

okay, so since this hasnt been posted here...this is fede's music app aka ubermusic. It is a wp7 styled music app that KICKS ASS. The guy who designed LauncherPro is the maker of this also. Seriously, you have to try it. Its still free at this point because its still in alpha/beta stages. But I STRONGLY suggest trying it!!! its awesome!!!
HERE IT IS
Thanks, it sure is a nice music app.

not sure at all, I was wondering the same thing. It does it so smoothly
Nice app! at first look it's sort of HUGE font, but the player is sweet! I hope there is going to be some EQ and Sound settings incorporated.
thanks for posting this!
I do like the alternate album art in the background. Font is a little big but its beta. I still only see songs listed by folders instead of categories I selected: songs, albums, artist, etc. I look forward to the end product

Anyone know if this will ever be able to use your google music songs?

Just noticed there is now a beta3...the fonts are smaller and it adds a Bio button. This really is a sweet music player good find
Looks great and works great. If there was 5.1 support, I will never go back to the music player app
Been using beta 3 for a few days now while in the gym.... Really sick!

Ok this app is definitely replacing poweramp. The UI is nice when themed, and the app is well polished and way to use. I gotta say The scrolling is freaking amazing. I wish every app on android was this smooth. Even smoother than the iPhone which is something I thought I would never see on android.

Downloading full albums?

In my music player, if u touch album u will see is all sh*t!
Most of songs with same photo.
e.g I have got few songs of different artists and albums got from bluetooth. But all of them has picture in albums of invoker(dota 2 hero). I don't know why but how it can be invoker
same with other songs also, all with bullsh*t pics!
So i am thinking to delete all songs and download their whole album.
So is there any app which will help me to download full albums?
Even if u give site from where to download full albums its ok.

Why has apollo+ music player gone?? ¿¿

Hi at one stage the apollo music app from cm was on the market with extras features and now its not? Why because ive brought it?

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

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!
