Drake Lyrics

Randomly generate lyrics from over 170 different songs by the ๐Ÿ Drake to use as your social media captions/bios.

How I made this app

I used the Genius API to fetch lyrics of all Drake songs on a Node.js server. I then randomly chose one song and extracted 4 random bars from it excluding adlibs between bars. I also mapped every song to its Spotify unique ID to then dynamically embed the Spotify player for that song each time a lyric is generated. This data is sent to the frontend which I originally made using EJS templates (old branch) but then switched to a standalone React frontend. I also added a copy to clipboard button and also embedded Twitter's Tweet button.
