A lyric video maker for rappers
You wrote every bar for a reason. A lyric video puts them on screen, so the wordplay does not go past people on the first listen.

Text description of this video
A lyric video in three colourful worlds: a rainbow sky with clouds, a purple sunset over waves, and a burst of blue and teal rays. The words appear with the singing in large letters, and on the peak words the letters gather out of small particles. Small drawings sit beside the words they belong to: keys, a flower pot, a cat, a peach, shoes. An equalizer moves along the bottom edge. The song's audio plays with the video.
Why rappers use lyric videos
- People can read the punchlines and go back for them.
- You can put out a visual on the day the track drops, with no shoot and no location.
- It gives a single, a freestyle or a mixtape track its own link to share.
Prepare your lyrics for it
Write out every word you really rap, in the order you rap it. Include the ad-libs you want on screen and leave out the ones you do not. Keep one line per bar or phrase. The words on screen are the words you paste, so spelling and slang stay yours.
Judge the fast parts yourself
Fast verses are the hardest thing for any sync. The free preview is a real excerpt of 12 to 15 seconds from your own track, and you pay nothing if it does not work for you. You can try up to 3 free versions per song.
Beat rights
If you rap over a leased or free beat, check that the licence covers a video release. Lyriclip only makes videos for songs you own or control.
