If you're building the app using the android studio, you will have to activate the mediaplayer service ie, music playing in the background.

You can try something of this sort, Intent intent = context.getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.google.android.music"); startActivity(intent); This would directly take you to the Google Play Music App. Hope this helps you @junaiiiid .
