Apple Music doesn't play explicit songs

I have the restrictions turned off completely, and yet Apple Music doesn't play songs with explicit content, doesn't let me add them to library etc. I have iOS12 installed recently.

iPhone 6, iOS 12

Go to iTunes Store and try to buy any explicit song there. There will be a pop-up asking for your permission to play explicit songs. Hit "Allow" and cancel the purchase. Apple Music should play explicits now.

Someone please help, I’ve tried every single one of these methods and it still doesn’t work for me, I just updated to IOS 12.1.4 and I have rebooted my iPhone multiple times and still nothing, I don’t even get a pop up when I try to purchase the song on iTunes, but there are no restrictions on my phone, anyone have any idea?

Just so everyone knows, as of Sept 26, the problem has magically resolved itself. I didn't do anything, but will continue to monitor it and will report back if it comes back. Cheers!
