how to get music widget back on lock screen

Updated my HTC one m8 today android version 5.0.1 sense 6.0, now I can no longer use the music widget from lock screen. I have to first unlock the phone and use the widget from my home screen. I can not find any option to replace it. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: how to get music widget back on lock screen

Welcome to Android Central! Lollipop got rid of lockscreen widgets. In its place, there are lockscreen notifications. Google Play Music has one, which acts like the old lockscreen widget--but you have to make sure that you're allowing notifications to appear on the lockscreen.
