I made 3 songs with Gemini’s Lyria music AI — one was shockingly good

Google’s Lyria 3: The AI Music Generator That Turned My To-Do List Into a Punk Rock Anthem

As a self-proclaimed music addict, I’m always on the hunt for new tunes—whether it’s hip-hop, R&B, house, metal, or electronic dance music. My weekends are often spent diving into the latest album releases, and I’ve even dabbled in music production (though my attempts with Fruity Loops were… let’s just say, not Grammy-worthy). So when I heard about Lyria 3, Google’s AI music generator integrated into the Gemini app, I was beyond excited to give it a spin.

Lyria 3 promises to turn your text prompts and uploaded photos into 30-second musical masterpieces. Intrigued, I decided to test its capabilities by creating three songs—and the results were surprisingly entertaining, if not a little cringe-worthy.

1. A Hip-Hop Track About Snowstorms in New York

Living in Queens, New York, I’m no stranger to snowstorms. So, I decided to channel my frustration into a hip-hop track. My prompt? “A grumbling hip-hop song bemoaning the snowstorm in New York City, with gritty boom-bap beats and a cold-distorted bassline.”

The result? Well, let’s just say it was… an experience. The beat was decent, but the rapper’s flow and lyrics were painfully awkward. Lines like “The whole city’s buried under snow!” felt more like a middle school talent show performance than a legit hip-hop track. Still, it was a fun first attempt at seeing how my prompts translated into music.

2. A Rock Anthem Inspired by Meeting Jake “The Snake” Roberts

Next, I dug into my Instagram archives and found a photo of me meeting wrestling legend Jake “The Snake” Roberts at New York Comic-Con 2021. Perfect! I crafted this prompt: “Create a celebratory rock song that describes the excitement that came with meeting Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts at New York Comic-Con.”

The result? A surprisingly catchy rock anthem that wouldn’t sound out of place as a wrestler’s entrance theme. The lyrics were a bit cheesy, but hey, that’s part of the charm when it comes to wrestling music. I found myself nodding along and even humming the tune after a few listens. Not bad for an AI-generated track!

3. A House Music Banger for the EDM Crowd

For my final experiment, I went all-in with a detailed prompt: “An energetic, vivacious house music song evoking the party atmosphere of a massive music festival. The tempo is 120 to 130 beats per minute.”

The result was a solid house track with a male and female vocal duo. While it had a somewhat generic feel (think of the kind of music you’d hear in a club or a commercial for a mood-enhancing pill), it was still a respectable effort. I could totally see this playing at a rave or festival—fist bumps and all.

Final Thoughts: AI Music Production, But Make It Fun

Gemini’s integration of Lyria 3 is a game-changer for creative types like me. While it’s not going to replace human musicians anytime soon, it’s a fantastic tool for experimenting with music, especially for content creators looking for copyright-free tracks or just for fun.

From my cringeworthy hip-hop diss track to my surprisingly enjoyable wrestling theme and my fist-bumping house anthem, Lyria 3 proved to be a versatile and entertaining AI music generator. Whether you’re a YouTuber, a music enthusiast, or just someone looking to kill time, this tool is worth exploring.

So, what are you waiting for? Fire up Gemini, give Lyria 3 a try, and let the AI music magic begin. Who knows? You might just create the next viral hit—or at least a track that’ll make you laugh.
