YouTube Music is introducing a modified form of artist pages on Android and iOS. This redesign begins with the artist's name being left-aligned alongside the subscribers count and a proper pill-shaped button for following.
Apart from its capability to start radio and shuffle, YouTube Music checked "play" previously. Circular buttons are integrated for smaller touch targets. The Latest Release card remains offered before you get to the top songs and the rest of the feed.
It’s a pretty noticeable modernisation that makes everything feel a little bit more compact and matches the redesign of album and playlist pages in 2022. This artist page redesign is a server-side update released to YouTube Music for Android and iOS.

Meanwhile, YouTube Music received a ‘Badges’ feature. To access this feature, tap your profile image to find the new section between "Your Recap" and "Paid memberships," and easily get access to it.
However, everyone has got "You don’t have any badges yet."
This seems related to the existing YouTube Premium perk that provides simple badges depending on how much you use the service. This should be displayed on the YouTube Music profile page along with other listening stats.
