Does Apple Music only works on Wifi and not on cellular device?

Whenever I try to use Apple Music without connected to Wifi, then it shows you are offline although my cellular data is on. Only when my iPhone is connected to Wifi, i am able to use Apple Music. Please suggest.

iPhone 6, iOS 8.4

I was almost hopeless, but then I realized that I disabled Mobile Data for some apps, and Music-App was among them.


Go to Settings > Mobile Data > scroll down and find Music-App, check that it's enabled!
