Key takeaways

  • Suno is the best all-round pick. Its v6 model makes full songs up to eight minutes long, paid plans include commercial rights from $8 a month billed annually, and early reports say casual profanity usually gets through, though its guidelines ban sexually explicit content.

  • ElevenLabs' music model has the most relaxed written policy of the big hosted tools. Its prohibited-use policy doesn't ban profanity, and commercial use starts on the $6 Starter plan.

  • If you want no filter at all, you'll need to run an open model yourself. ACE-Step 1.5 is MIT-licensed, runs on under 4GB of video memory and writes songs up to 10 minutes long.

  • Every hosted tool here bars sexually explicit, pornographic or obscene content in its terms or policies. Swearing is the gray area, and filters can change without notice.

  • Udio is off the list. Since its settlement with Universal Music in October 2025, you can't download your songs or use them commercially.

How we ranked

We weighed how much each tool lets through in lyrics, the quality of its vocals, how long a song it can make, what a month of regular use costs, and whether you own and can release what you make.

1. Suno - Best overall for explicit songs

Suno is the best-known AI song generator, and its v6 models, released in September 2026, write and sing full songs from a prompt or your own lyrics.

What works: Songs can run up to eight minutes in a single generation. The Pro plan ($8 a month billed annually, $10 month to month) includes commercial use, and Suno's terms assign paid subscribers Suno's rights in their songs. Premier ($24 a month billed annually) raises the credits. Early v6 write-ups say profanity is no longer blocked by reflex, and casual swearing in rap and rock lyrics usually gets through.

What doesn't: Suno's community guidelines ban sexually explicit content, and its help center lists "excessive profanity" as a reason a song can be blocked, so heavier lyrics can stop a song from generating. Since September 3, 2026, Pro includes only 20 downloads a month, and free accounts get seven lifetime downloads that you can't use commercially. Some r/SunoAI users say v6 vocals sound flatter and don't carry the expression of earlier versions.

Best for: Artists who want polished, finished songs with everyday profanity.

2. ElevenLabs Music - Best for a relaxed policy

ElevenLabs, known for its voice models, makes full songs with its Music v2.5 model. The model was trained on licensed music through deals with Merlin and Kobalt, and Believe signed its own licensing deal with ElevenLabs in April 2026.

What works: Its prohibited-use policy covers child safety and violent threats but doesn't mention profanity. Songs run up to five minutes, and ElevenLabs says the model is cleared for nearly all commercial uses. Commercial use starts on the $6 Starter plan.

What doesn't: Its music terms bar customers in the adult entertainment or pornographic industry and any output that's obscene, and you can't put artist names, song titles or recognizable chunks of existing lyrics in prompts. We found no recent hands-on reports on how its current model handles heavy profanity.

Best for: Creators who want a commercially cleared model with fewer lyric restrictions in writing.

3. ACE-Step 1.5 - Best for no filter

ACE-Step 1.5 is an open-source song model that you run on your own computer, so there's no platform reviewing your lyrics.

What works: It's released under the MIT license, which allows commercial use. The base model needs less than 4GB of video memory, and songs run from 10 seconds to 10 minutes, with lyrics in more than 50 languages. A larger XL version, released in April 2026, wants 12GB with offloading and 20GB to run comfortably. The repository has more than 1,400 commits, the latest in late August 2026.

What doesn't: You'll need to install it and learn its settings, and its vocals aren't as polished as Suno's. With no moderation, responsibility for what you make and release is yours.

Best for: Anyone who wants explicit lyrics with no filter and has a modest graphics card.

4. Treblo - Best free songs you own

Treblo, called Sonauto until June 2026, offers unlimited songs on its latest model for free.

What works: The free tier includes downloads in formats up to WAV and FLAC, and Treblo places no usage restrictions on free outputs: its terms assign you whatever rights exist in them. Treblo's CEO also told The Verge that "RUBBERZ," a Billboard Hot 100 track, appeared to have been generated almost entirely by its model.

What doesn't: Its terms ban sexually explicit, obscene and lewd content. They also mention paid subscriptions, but the site doesn't list plans or prices or explain how its lyric filter behaves.

Best for: Budget-minded artists who want to keep full rights to free songs.

5. YuE2 - Best local quality

YuE2 is an open song model released in September 2026, aimed at people with a high-end graphics card.

What works: It renders 48 kHz stereo songs, and its authors say it's competitive with Suno v5 and v6 on their own benchmark. Individual creators are free to use it and monetize what they make. Running it locally means no platform filter.

What doesn't: The official setup calls for 24GB of video memory. Its weights are under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license with an extra permission for individual creators, so companies can't use it commercially without a separate license.

Best for: Solo artists with a 24GB graphics card who want the best open-source vocals.

6. Mureka - Best for lyric-first songwriting

Mureka is a song generator built around writing and setting your own lyrics, now on its V9.5 model.

What works: Paid plans include full commercial rights, and there's no cap on downloads in any format. Pro costs $8 a month billed annually, or about $10 month to month.

What doesn't: Its terms ban obscene, pornographic and vulgar content, and we found no reliable reports on how strictly its filter treats profanity. The free plan doesn't include its newest model.

Best for: Songwriters who start from their own lyrics and want unlimited downloads.

Frequently asked questions

Does Suno allow explicit lyrics?

Partly. Users say casual profanity usually gets through on Suno v6, but its guidelines don't allow sexually explicit content, and excessive profanity can stop a song from generating.

What AI music generator has no filter?

Only open models you run yourself, such as ACE-Step 1.5 and YuE2. Every hosted tool on this list has rules against sexually explicit, pornographic or obscene content, even where it's relaxed about swearing.

Can I still use Udio?

Only inside Udio. Since its October 2025 settlement with Universal Music, its terms don't allow downloads, Udio and its licensors own the outputs, and you can use songs only for personal, non-commercial purposes.

Can I release AI songs with explicit lyrics commercially?

On the right plan, yes. Suno Pro, Mureka's paid plans and ElevenLabs Starter and above include commercial rights, Treblo places no usage restrictions on its outputs, and ACE-Step's MIT license allows commercial use. Suno's free tier doesn't, and Udio doesn't on any plan.

What GPU do I need to make songs locally?

ACE-Step 1.5 runs on under 4GB of video memory, its XL version wants 12GB to 20GB, and YuE2's official setup calls for 24GB.
