Use mediaplayer.reset(); after stop() method before playing new song.

Add these points in select & play new song method:

  1. Check if the track is playing:

    if(mp.isPlaying())

    ... where mp is MediaPlayer object.

  2. If yes then stop play and then reset media player: 

    mp.stop();  
mp.reset();

    The mp.reset() will reset all initialization of MediaPlayer ex: song URI etc.

    If not then only reset media player: 

    mp.reset();

  3. Now get the position and the ID of newly selected track from the list and set it as new URI.

  4. Play track based on new URI:

    mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, NewTrackUri);  
mp.start();

    This should only play the newly selected track.

Stop and release the media player in the onDestroy, example :

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onDestroy();
    if(mp!=null){
         mp.stop();
         mp.release();
         mp = null;
    }
}
