Use the Playing Next list in Music on Mac
While listening to music, you can use the Playing Next list to view and change which songs play next. For example, if you’re listening to a playlist, you can click Playing Next and choose an album to switch to after the song currently playing finishes. When the album finishes, Music resumes playing the playlist.
