What is a Tiny Desk AI generator?

A Tiny Desk AI generator turns photos into an intimate office-concert video. RapSong.ai’s Desk concert places one Lead and up to four musicians in an original room, then animates a 15-second rap performance using your own uploaded song or a personalized AI song. It does not recreate NPR footage or supply “Outstanding.”

Desk concert, at a glance

Performers
1–5 consenting adults: one Lead and up to four musicians, each from a separate photo. Or one pet performing solo.
Scene
An original warm office concert with wooden shelves, records, a lamp, keyboard and microphones.
Video
15 seconds · MP4 · 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 · 720p target, with dimensions depending on format. Our October 28 three-person square test produced 960 × 960.
Song
Write an original AI rap with friends’ names, edit your own lyrics, or upload your own MP3, WAV or M4A. No supplied commercial song.
Your audio
15 seconds to 10 minutes, up to 20 MB. Pick a 15-second excerpt; the selected audio drives the performance. Uploaded-song delivery has no separate MP3.
Price
70 credits per video. Starter pack: $6.99. No extra charge for musician seats. Credits are required before audio or video generation.
Free preview
A still scene preview, not a video. Up to three new previews per signed-in user per day, subject to shared capacity. Reopening the same approved preview reuses it.
Time
Video: about 5 minutes, plus song creation and review. Queues vary; we email when ready.
Limits
Three-person video generation has been tested; reliable four- and five-person output is not yet established. Check every face before filming. More people can reduce identity consistency. Lip sync, instrument motion and names may drift; no exact-performance guarantee.
Privacy
Input photos and uploaded songs are stored privately and expire after seven days. AI providers process inputs; see the privacy policy for provider handling.
Affiliation
RapSong.ai is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by NPR or Tiny Desk. No NPR logos, footage or original performance references are used.

For your own recording, confirm that a tool accepts audio and uses it for the mouth performance. Replacing a soundtrack afterward does not make the mouth match it. A vendor’s template or subscription is not proof of third-party music clearance.

From your photos to your desk concert

  1. 1

    Seat your band

    Upload one clear adult photo for the Lead. Add up to four individual musician photos and choose portrait, square or landscape.

  2. 2

    Preview the room

    Request a free still preview. Count the faces and check their likeness, mouths and instruments before spending video credits.

  3. 3

    Bring your song

    Write a rap with names and memories, or upload a song you may use and choose 15 seconds. For AI songs, listen and confirm your take before filming.

  4. 4

    Make and share

    Use 70 credits for your video. The Lead raps while the band plays. Download the MP4 or use its share and gift links.

Give every face room.

A stable shot helps a small band look like a band.

Photos that work

  • One consenting adult in each photo; JPEG, PNG or WebP under 5 MB.
  • Face forward, eyes visible, even light and a clear mouth. Leave shoulders in frame.
  • For three to five people, start with square or landscape; compare every face in the preview.
  • Keep the Lead in front and the musicians slightly behind. A steady wide shot keeps everyone visible.

What to check

  • Avoid sunglasses, face coverings, overlapping faces and tiny faces in group shots.
  • Do not upload children, celebrities or someone without permission.
  • A microphone should sit below or beside the mouth, not hide it.
  • Hand and instrument movement is generated; exact fingerings, beats and perfect lip sync are not guaranteed.

Before your first desk concert

Can I put myself and four friends in one video?

Yes. Use one Lead photo and up to four separate musician photos. Everyone must be a consenting adult. The Lead raps; the others are assigned keyboard, guitar, bass and percussion. Check the composite first: accepting five photos does not guarantee that every generated face stays consistent.

Can I use my own song instead of Outstanding?

Yes. Choose “I already have a song,” upload an MP3, WAV or M4A up to 20 MB and 10 minutes, and select a 15-second excerpt. You need rights to the music, recording and vocals. The selected excerpt drives the performance; RapSong.ai does not provide Outstanding or other copyrighted songs.

Can AI write a rap with all our names?

Yes. Choose “Write a song for me,” add names and personal details, then edit the lyrics. You can check pronunciation and listen to the AI song before filming. Original AI voices are used; this is not voice cloning.

Is the Tiny Desk AI generator free?

Lyric writing and a limited still scene preview are free. Video generation costs 70 credits. The Starter pack costs $6.99; no video is generated for free. A remake using an existing take costs 50 credits. Confirmed failed generation restores all charged credits, not a cash refund; you may retry, with no automatic model switch.

Is RapSong.ai affiliated with NPR?

No. RapSong.ai is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by NPR or Tiny Desk. Desk concert uses an original office setting without NPR logos, footage or original performance references.

Show all questionsShow fewer questions
Is it legal and safe to use?

No tool can guarantee every use is lawful. Get permission from every adult pictured and use music and images you have rights to. RapSong.ai screens inputs, rejects public figures and minors, and processes media through AI providers. Review Privacy, Content Policy and Usage Rights before uploading.

Can I share on TikTok or use the video commercially?

Credit packs cover personal gifts and noncommercial sharing. New and existing Creator / Studio subscription-funded creations include commercial permission, subject to provider rights and your rights to all inputs. No exclusive copyright or third-party clearance is promised. Monthly subscription credits are spent first. Commercial permission requires the whole creation to be funded by eligible subscription credits; mixed pack / subscription funding remains personal use. A later subscription does not upgrade earlier creations. You can download the MP4 for TikTok or other platforms; follow their AI disclosure and music rules. Consent and music rights are still required; a plan does not clear someone else’s song or likeness.

How long do you keep my photos and song?

Input photos and uploaded audio expire after seven days. Generated video and share-link handling is described in the privacy policy. AI providers have separate processing and retention practices; seven days is RapSong.ai’s input-storage policy, not a promise that every provider copy is deleted then.

Can a pet perform?

Yes, a single pet can perform solo in the desk scene. Pet mouths are playful animation, not phoneme-perfect lip sync. Do not add human musician photos to a pet performance.

How long and what quality is the result?

The output is a 15-second MP4 targeting 720p in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9. Video usually takes about five minutes, plus song creation and review; queues vary. RapSong.ai adds no visible watermark, but does not remove provider marks.
