Apple Music only playing censored songs

Apple Music on my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook only play the censored versions of songs. Explicit content is allowed in settings and I have tried every fix recommended to other users with the same issue. This is only a recent problem in the last week, before that the uncensored versions would play.

Why is my Apple Music censoring explicit content on iPhone 15 Pro Max? I’ve had Apple Music for a long time now and have always had “filter explicit music” turned off. I’m an adult and my kids don’t use it so no need to have it on. I recently upgraded to the iPhone 15 pro max and installed iOS 17. I just started to notice my music is now being censored. Songs I know have explicit content plays but the explicit parts are blanked out, why? “Content and privacy restrictions” is turned off so that’s not it. Idk what else is on all of a sudden to cause this. Help please it’s frustrating. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Censored music I've bought the explicit versions of some songs and they are being censored which is really frustrating. I have searched on the net and tried all the fixes but nothing is working! Im about ready to ditch all my Apple crap. Can anyone help with some USEFUL advice. (Yes, I HAVE bought the explicit versions). This happens on all my apple devices.

Did it happen after an iPhone update? If so, you should make this known to Apple:

it seemed to happen randomly, I hadn't changed anything before it started happening. I thought the 15.4.1 update might fix it but it did not
