Why won't my music download?

I got the album onto my Iphone but it won't download it just goes dark and has a stop sign and a loading circle around it and won't do anything.

I need more info or a screenshot to be sure, but you can't download music from elsewhere besides iTunes Store on an iPhone. So don't bother downloading from soundcloud, youtube or other free MP3 sites.

Your question should have described how you got the album onto the iPhone. There may have been a mistake that you missed.

Try using manual management of music and video. If you recently updated iTunes software, make sure that you reboot your computer before trying to put music on your phone using iTunes.

Also, are you sure the songs are on your computer to begin with? Just being in iTunes doesn't mean that they're on the computer.
