Friends in different cities
The two photos can come from different phones, years and countries. The model puts both people side by side at the same mic, so you can make one without meeting up.

The short answer
Updated
A Hotel Lobby AI video is an AI clip that puts two new people into the orange booth from Quavo and Takeoff’s 2022 performance on A COLORS SHOW. One person raps into a silver mic hanging from the ceiling, the other hypes beside them. For where it all started, see what the Hotel Lobby trend is.
On RapVideo the two people come from your photos, and the model renders a new Hotel Lobby AI video of both of you in the orange booth, rapping to the original song or one of your own. A 12-second Hotel Lobby video in 480p is 6 credits, in 9:16 for TikTok and Reels or 16:9 like the original.
RapVideo is independent and not affiliated with Quavo, Takeoff, Migos, Quality Control, Motown or COLORS. Put your own people on the stage, not the artists.
What people call the Hotel Lobby AI filter is usually not a live camera effect. The clips are AI videos rendered from photos, which is why one takes minutes rather than a tap. Here the render works for two people at once, both rapping in the same booth.
A face swap pastes one face onto the original clip, so the body, the outfit and the moves still belong to the artist. Here the clip is rendered fresh: the model keeps the orange wall and the hanging mic and has your two people perform the routine.

How it works
Clear, front-facing shots with one face each work best. They don’t need to be taken together. The left photo raps, the right one hypes.
The Hotel Lobby stage starts with the Hotel Lobby track, the rap from the original clip. Swap in your own song, or choose a Seedance model and type a topic for an AI rap song. Set 9:16 or 16:9 under Video settings.
Wan 3.0 takes about 5 to 15 minutes, and you can close the tab. Your Hotel Lobby AI video lands in My videos as an MP4 with no watermark. If a render fails, the credits come back.

Two people in the orange booth from Quavo and Takeoff’s 2022 COLORS performance of “Hotel Lobby”: one raps into the hanging mic, one hypes. Here those two are the people you upload, and nobody else.
No: there is no free render or free trial, because every render is paid to the model provider. A 12-second 480p Hotel Lobby AI video is 6 credits, the smallest pack is 10 credits for $9.99, and a failed render gives its credits back. CapCut is a separate, hands-on route priced by its own plans.
Nothing. It runs in the browser and the Hotel Lobby stage is built in: no app, no template, no editing. Add two photos and press create.
By default, yes: the Hotel Lobby track is the rap from the original clip, and the lead lip-syncs it. That recording belongs to its rights holders. For a sound that is yours, upload your own song or voice, or pick an AI rap on a Seedance model to make an original song and beat from your topic.
Yes, you can make it apart. Each person needs one clear photo, and the photos don’t need to be taken together: different cities, different years. The model puts both of you side by side in one Hotel Lobby video.
It is the same trend under another name: people call the Hotel Lobby trend Migos AI because Quavo and Takeoff were in that group. The Migos AI song and video page covers the AI rap side.
Pick 5, 8, 10, 12 or 15 seconds; 12 seconds in 480p is the standard. Formats are 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4. Wan 3.0 takes about 5 to 15 minutes; for Seedance the provider estimates up to about 5 minutes.
Photos of yourself and of people who agreed to be in it. Quavo, Takeoff and other public figures are off limits. Takeoff died in 2022, and the original performance is on the COLORS YouTube channel.
As far as we know, no app offers it as a live camera effect; the clips are AI videos rendered from two photos. Add one photo of each person here to make that look for two people at once, with nothing to install.
No. A face swap app lays one face onto the original clip and keeps everything else. RapVideo renders a new Hotel Lobby AI video in which both of your people perform, so any pair can be an AI rap duo: friends, a couple, siblings.
No. Credit packs are one-time and never expire, from 10 credits for $9.99. Monthly and yearly plans are optional, for people who make videos often.
You can try, but the editor is built for people, so treat it as an experiment: one sharp, front-facing animal per photo, on the cheapest setting first (Seedance 2.0 Mini at 480p, 5 credits for 12 seconds). A finished render is charged even if it comes out odd. More on the pet rap video page.
Your turn
Add two photos to make a Hotel Lobby video with the original song or your own: 12 seconds in 480p for 6 credits, ready in about 5 to 15 minutes.
