Google Gemini AI music generation is now live, allowing users to compose original songs directly through the chatbot. Google announced the update in an official blog post, confirming that millions of users worldwide can now create AI-generated music.
The feature is powered by Google DeepMind’s new Lyria 3 model, described as the company’s most advanced music generation system to date.
With Lyria 3, users can generate 30-second music tracks using simple text prompts. Gemini produces lyrics, background music, vocals, and even album cover art within seconds.
Unlike earlier versions, users no longer need to write their own lyrics. The AI handles the full composition process automatically. However, users can still customise style, tempo, and vocal preferences by providing detailed prompts.
Introducing Lyria 3, our new music generation model in Gemini that lets you turn any idea, photo, or video into a high-fidelity track with custom lyrics.
From funny jingles to lo-fi beats, you can create custom 30-second soundtracks for any moment.
See how it works. 🧵

Gemini includes a library of preset styles covering genres such as folk ballads and pop music. Users can remix existing tracks or create new ones from scratch.
Currently, Lyria 3 supports music generation in English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese. Google plans to expand language support in future updates.

This update strengthens Gemini’s creative capabilities. By combining music, lyrics, and visual elements, Google is positioning Gemini as a broader creative assistant rather than just a text-based chatbot.
As AI tools evolve, music-generation features like Lyria 3 may become increasingly integrated into digital content-creation workflows.
