Can't play explicit content (E) rated songs on Apple Music.

After updating to iOS12 I tried to play a few song which are mature rated or Explicit (E) rated songs on apple music it says "This item can't be played because it contains explicit content. To play this item, allow explicit content for Music in Restriction." When i subscribed to the apple music for the first time it did ask me for it to allow explicit content and also i did allow it already but since updating to iOS12 i didn't back up my data and had to re-download all the songs back including some songs rated E on them and got this notice by the music player. Please help me download these songs as i can't stay a day listening to them!

iPhone 6, iOS 12, Subscribtion to Apple music!

I had the same issue on iOS 12. I tried turning on "Explicit" under content restrictions but that didn't help. But finally, as someone had mentioned earlier, I opened iTunes Store. It said that explicit content was turned off and asked if I wanted to turn it on. I selected turn on and previewed an explicit track in the iTunes Store just to be sure. Then I opened the Music app, and voila, explicit songs can now be played!
