Bug Description
I have only one Bruno Mars and one Daft Punk album on my device.
In the Music Scope initial view they show with one set of artwork.
In the Music app and the expanded Music Scope they show different artwork.
Should these not be consistent?
Scope:- http://
Scope, expanded:- http://
Further example:- http://
I don't have a screenshot from the Music App, but it shows the same as the scope expanded view.

The artwork you see in the first image (Scope) is the "artist artwork". This is an image that doesn't identify a specific album, but the artist. Typically this is a group photo of the "band"--which is more or less what you see for Bruno Mars and Daft Punk. What you see in the second image (Scope, expanded) and the Music app are the actual _album_ cover arts.
I don't think there's an inconsistency here. However, the design team should consider using the "artist artwork" in the Music app in the Artists tab. One reason not to do so is that the "artist artwork" seems to be empty or of poor quality more often tat the album cover art images.
