Your style prompt
Pick a few tags above and your prompt will appear here.
How it works
- 1
Pick your tags
Choose a genre and a mood first, then layer in vocals, an era, instruments and production character. Less is more.
- 2
Set the tempo
Drag the BPM slider or hit a tempo preset. A concrete BPM keeps Suno from defaulting to a mid-tempo shuffle.
- 3
Copy and paste
Copy the finished prompt into Suno’s style box. Generate a couple of takes; the same prompt never sounds identical twice.
Style box vs. lyrics box: how Suno reads your prompt
In Suno’s custom mode there are two inputs, and they do very different jobs. The style box describes how the song should sound: genre, mood, vocal type, instrumentation, production and tempo, written as short comma-separated descriptors. That is exactly what this generator builds. The lyrics box holds the words to be sung, plus structure tags in square brackets like [Verse], [Chorus] and [Bridge], which Suno treats as directions rather than lyrics.
The most common beginner mistake is mixing the two: paste “dreamy synthwave, 105 BPM” into the lyrics box and Suno will happily sing it. Keep descriptions in the style box, and use bracketed meta tags only in the lyrics box. If you need the lyrics half, our Suno lyrics generator builds structured lyrics with those tags in place, and the Suno prompt guide goes deeper on both.
Example prompts
A good style prompt reads like a producer’s shorthand, not a paragraph. Here are three built with this tool:
dreamy synthwave, female airy vocals, 80s analog warmth, analog synth, 105 BPM
dark phonk, aggressive, 808 bass, tape saturation, sidechain compression, 145 BPM
chill lo-fi hip hop, instrumental, vinyl crackle, grand piano, 82 BPM
Notice the pattern: mood + genre up front, then vocals, then texture, then tempo. Avoid contradictions like pairing whispered vocals with powerhouse belting; when tags fight each other, the output lands in a muddy middle. And since Suno rejects artist names, describe the sound you associate with the artist instead: the era, the vocal character, the drums.
FAQ
Is this Suno prompt generator free?
Yes. Every tool on SongToolbox is free, with no account, no credits and no daily limit. Build and copy as many prompts as you want.
Do my selections get uploaded anywhere?
No. The generator is plain JavaScript running in your browser. Nothing you pick is sent to a server, and there is no AI or API behind it.
How many tags should I use?
Three to six is the sweet spot. One genre, one mood, a vocal style and a couple of production or instrument tags gives Suno a clear target. Past about eight tags the styles start to blur together.
Can I ask for a specific artist's style?
Suno blocks artist names in prompts. Describe the ingredients instead: era, vocal character, instrumentation and production. "80s arena rock, male raspy vocals, big drums" gets you closer than any name would.
What goes in the style box versus the lyrics box?
The style box takes comma-separated descriptors like the ones this tool builds. The lyrics box takes the words to be sung, plus bracketed structure tags like [Verse] and [Chorus]. Don't mix them up: style words in the lyrics box tend to get sung out loud.
Do these prompts work with Udio or other AI music generators?
Yes. The prompts are plain descriptive text, so they transfer well to Udio and most other text-to-music tools, though each model has its own quirks.
