Add expressive AI vocals to your existing instrumental without rebuilding the track. Keep groove and timing aligned while introducing new toplines and lyrical direction.
Generate new melodic phrases on top of your track to discover stronger hooks and lead moments. Expand musical storytelling without replacing your original arrangement foundation.
Move from a rough concept to a release-ready track with a clear workflow. Define your creative direction, let AI build the musical foundation, then polish and export the version you want to share.
Begin in the format that feels natural: a short prompt, a detailed lyric draft, or a reference track. Add style, mood, era, and tempo cues so the model understands both your technical direction and your intended emotional tone.
After submission, AI composes melody, rhythm, harmony, and section structure around your input. Instead of isolated fragments, you get a coherent full-song draft that is easy to audition, compare, and iterate.
Use the first result as a working version: refine sections, regenerate weaker moments, split stems, isolate vocals, or export MIDI for deeper production workflows. When the track aligns with your direction, export and publish with confidence.

01R&B was born out of gospel, blues, and jazz. Back in the 1940s, artists like Ray Charles and Ruth Brown were crafting music that felt both spiritual and raw, pulling church sounds into dance halls. Sam Cooke gave us smooth ballads that melted hearts, while groups like The Drifters built the blueprint for vocal harmony groups to come.
02By the '70s, R&B had grown up. The music got funkier, more political, and undeniably groovy. Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye delivered records that spoke to love, hope, and social change. Bands like Earth, Wind & Fire and Parliament-Funkadelic kept dance floors alive with explosive energy. And then there was Aretha Franklin, reminding the world that R&B vocals could be pure power and soul.
03Ask any R&B fan, and they'll tell you: the '90s were magic. This was the decade when R&B ruled the charts and gave us unforgettable sounds. New Jack Swing fused hip-hop beats with slick R&B. Hip-Hop Soul was raw and emotional. Quiet Storm delivered lush ballads. Neo-Soul brought a jazzy, funk-inspired twist.
04Fast-forward to the present, and R&B has gone global. It blends with hip-hop, pop, electronic, and even indie. Usher and Beyoncé carried R&B into the mainstream, while artists like Frank Ocean, The Weeknd, and H.E.R. pushed boundaries with moody, intimate, genre-blurring music.
