Real AI rap videos, one photo each
Tap a clip to play it with sound. Every face in these samples is AI-generated, not a real person.
How does photo to rap work?
Photo to rap uses an image-to-video model with audio. Your photo is the first frame, and the model animates the face and upper body while it generates a beat and a rap vocal. The mouth moves in time with the words, so it looks like the photo itself is performing.
With the Selfie Rap template, the scene stays exactly where your photo was taken. Pick another template if you want the AI to cut to a new set after the first beat.
How it works
How to make a photo to rap
- 1
Upload one photo
A clear, front-facing photo works best: one face, even light, no sunglasses. That photo becomes the first frame of your photo-to-rap video.

Pick a template and write bars
Choose the scene and the beat, then type one or two lines of your own, or keep the template verse. Pick a deep or bright voice.

Generate and post
The AI writes the beat, raps your lines and syncs the lips in about a minute. Download the 9:16 MP4 and post it anywhere.
Good to know
What makes a photo rap well
Face the camera
Front-facing photos give the cleanest lip sync. Side profiles and tilted heads are harder to animate.
Leave room around the head
A little space above the head and shoulders gives the AI room for gestures and nodding.
Old photos work too
Throwback photos and graduation pics make great surprises, as long as the face is sharp.
FAQ
Questions, answered
How long does an AI rap video take?
+
Most 8-second clips are ready in under a minute. Keep the tab open and the video plays as soon as it is done. It is also saved under My Creations.
How much does it cost?
+
An 8-second video generation costs 100 credits. One-time packs: $9.90 for 1 video, $19.90 for 3 videos, $39.90 for 8 videos. Credits stay valid for a year. There is no free trial or signup credit.
What happens if a video fails?
+
If the AI engine rejects the job before it starts, your credits are returned automatically. Once the engine has started rendering, the compute is already spent, so a failed render still uses its credits. Clear, well-lit photos fail far less often.
Can I write my own lyrics?
+
Yes. Type one or two short lines in English (up to 160 characters) and the rapper performs them. Leave the box empty to use the template verse.
Can I use someone else’s photo?
+
Only with their permission. Do not upload photos of celebrities, public figures or minors, and do not make videos that harass or deceive anyone. See our Terms of Service.
Is there a watermark?
+
No. Every video you make downloads as a clean vertical MP4 that you can post to TikTok, Reels or Shorts.
