I am trying to fetch all the albums from the device and displaying it. And it works fine. But I observed that the Artist for Album is showing differently in Play music . Is there any other way to get the artist other than the below code?

Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Albums.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
String[] cols = new String[] {
            MediaStore.Audio.Albums._ID,
            MediaStore.Audio.Albums.ARTIST,
            MediaStore.Audio.Albums.ALBUM,
            MediaStore.Audio.Albums.ALBUM_ART
    };
 Cursor cursor = MusicUtils.query(this, uri,
                    cols, null, null, MediaStore.Audio.Albums.DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER);

mArtistIdx = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Audio.Albums.ARTIST);
String artistName = cursor.getString(mArtistIdx);

@IceMAN I am not looking for any third party API. Looking for way to get it through mediastore itself. – Siju Jan 08 '16 at 06:22
