I know YouTube Music got a lot of shit from the fans of the previous service, Google Play Music, but over the last year they've added most features back and YTM works really well. I also get YouTube ad free, although I've had it so long, I don't know if that's still part of the deal
The reason why I can't recommend YouTube music is that it uses audio from videos instead of playing the studio versions of the tracks. The fact that it makes me listen to those silly audio parts in music videos while I'm trying to listen to a studio release is terrible in my opinion, and I couldn't figure out a way to hide those results from search entirely. Does anybody know if they've fixed this?
It's not exactly the same but you can use the SponsorBlock addon to skip the non-music segments of music videos when playing in browser, and for Android there's a fork of NewPipe that has this integrated.
