What Is YuE 2?
YuE 2 is the open-weights song model for lyrics-first creation. You bring the full lyric sheet and a style prompt — no AI ghostwriter — then tune prompt adherence on a 0–20 scale and optionally reference an uploaded track for a music-to-music pass. One MP3 song per run, with the full editing suite enabled.

What YuE Does Best
Literal lyrics control and tunable style fidelity.
Your words, kept whole
YuE never rewrites your input: the lyrics you paste are the lyrics it sings, line by line. The most literal lyrics control of any model here.
Style fidelity you can dial
The prompt-adherence scale (0–20) sets how strictly YuE follows your style prompt — low for loose interpretation, high for exact genre and instrumentation.
Open-source lineage
YuE's open weights keep the model transparent and community-driven — a favorite for creators who want an alternative to closed corporate models.

Versions & Controls
Custom mode only — lyrics and style are first-class inputs.
Lyrics + style, both required
Custom mode is the only mode: full lyrics (3,000-character limit) and a style prompt are both mandatory inputs. YuE does not auto-write words.
Reference audio (music-to-music)
Attach a track from your uploads or library and YuE generates against it — 40 credits instead of 30 — for style-matched songwriting and covers-with-a-twist.
Prompt adherence, 0–20
One advanced slider controls how literally the style prompt is taken. It stays at the default unless you move it — nudge it when a generation drifts from your brief.

About the YuE Music Model
The model
YuE is an open-source song generation project, and YuE 2 marks the current generation served on RaoMusic through hosted inference. Its design centers the writer: lyrics and style are both explicit, first-class inputs, and the model's job is performance, not ghostwriting.
How you drive it
A prompt-adherence scale from 0 to 20 sets how strictly the style prompt is interpreted, and a reference-audio slot turns the same model into a music-to-music tool. There is no simple mode — bring lyrics and a style every time, or draft the words in the AI lyrics generator first.
When to choose YuE 2
Choose it for
- Lyrics-first: the words you paste are the words it sings, never rewritten.
- A 0–20 adherence dial and reference-audio mode keep the performance on brief.
The trade-off
No simple mode — lyrics and a style are required every time.
