Street Cypher
Brick, graffiti and a streetlight with a blurry crowd. The closest thing to a parking-lot cypher.

How the battle runs
Inside the rap battle video maker
A battle needs two voices, so this page loads the studio with the AI rap sound and Both rap switched on. Instead of a front voice and a sidekick, you get two rappers who each defend a side. The AI writes one verse over one beat, split between them, about the matchup you type.
Every argument becomes a short clip, not a comment thread. The two portraits stand at the shared mic on the set you choose, whoever holds the line is lip-synced, and the whole thing runs 12 seconds unless you change the length.
Keep the beef about the topic, not the person. Sexual or hateful subjects are refused before credits move, and the bars stay clean.
Three moves
How to start your rap battle video
01Bring both contenders
A portrait each, or one picture with both. They do not have to be from the same day or place.
02State the beef
120 characters at most: “tea vs coffee” or “who does more dishes in this house”.
03Leave Both rap on and create
With Both rap on they swap lines. 10 credits buys 12 seconds on the orange set or any other.
Choose the venue
Four arenas for the battle
Luxury Lobby
Chandelier, marble and gold trim, perfect for a battle over who has better taste.
Studio Booth
Foam panels and purple neon. Looks like a 2 a.m. recording session that got heated.
Hotel Lobby (orange)
The orange wall from the trend, with its original routine. 10 credits for 12 seconds, same as every other arena.
Battle topics with two real sides
- Tea vs coffee
- Cats vs dogs, judged by two owners
- Who does more dishes in this apartment
- Window seat vs aisle seat
- Summer camp counselors: who had the worse cabin
- Paper books vs e-readers
- Grandma’s lasagna vs Grandpa’s barbecue
Clear opposites make better bars than plain insults. Each rapper needs something to stand up for.
Why a filmed battle hits harder than a typed one
- Faces get watched. A clip of two people you know at the mic gets replayed; a long message gets skimmed.
- Everyone gets a turn. Both rap gives each side lines, so the battle feels fair.
- It fits any feed. Vertical is loaded for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4 all cost the same.

Hotel Lobby Clips by Other Creators
These clips show the format. Other people made them with other tools, and each one is credited and linked to its post. They are not output from Hotel Lobby Video.
My sister and I argue about everything. Can we battle with one old photo of us together?
Yes. Pick one photo of both, type the argument, keep Both rap on and create. The left person in the picture opens the battle.
Is a rap battle video free?
No. A 12 second battle is 10 credits on any set. Credits come off when you press create, never later. The cheapest top-up is 10 credits for $9.99, and if a take fails the credits go straight back to your balance.
Can we battle over a song we uploaded?
Not as a battle. Both rap needs the AI rap sound on a Seedance model. With your own song, the front voice lip-syncs and the sidekick does the hype.
Can the battle run longer than twelve seconds?
On the orange set: 5, 8, 10, 12 or 15 seconds. Elsewhere: 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20 or 30, with 20 or 30 available only on Seedance 2.5.
Could I battle a famous rapper?
No. Only people who agreed to appear can be in the photos. Public figures and strangers are not allowed.
Will the AI write offensive bars?
No. Verses are clean, hateful or sexual subjects are blocked before payment, and Seedance takes pass the provider’s NSFW filter.
