Anyways i hope someone can help me as this is really annoying.

Try restarting your phone, or if that isn’t successful, a forced restart: Force restart iPhone - Apple Support

Have you tried to force quit the app (swipe up until you see all your open apps, swipe Apple Music up and restart the app) to see if the issues persist? For me it is not buggy at all, so there is a glitch going on

It’s a good question, and rather hilarious that the only offered solutions are reboots or restarting the app. The problem is bigger than that. Adding music is probably the best example. It is a very laggy experience that can take several seconds for the app to respond to clicking the plus. I wish Apple would address this. It’s been persistent for multiple generations of iOS.
