                }

            });
        mp.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {

            @Override
            public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                mp.release();
                System.out.println("Object released");
                button.setEnabled(true);
                button.setClickable(true);
                pervious.setEnabled(true);
                pervious.setClickable(true);
            }
        });
        }

    } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }catch (SecurityException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
        e.getMessage();
    } catch (NullPointerException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
        e.getMessage();
    }

}

I want to stop music if it's playing and play another song one after another.
