Suno Launches 8-Minute AI Speech Beta With Background Music

Summary
Public beta access is now live on Suno’s web and mobile apps, letting users generate spoken voice tracks and optional AI background music in one combined output.
Two creation modes drive the feature: Simple uses a descriptive prompt, while Advanced accepts a custom script and adds controls for voice gender, speaking style and variation.
Speech clips currently top out at about eight minutes, and Suno says the model remains rough in places, with accents and pauses still prone to errors during the beta.
The launch pushes Suno beyond AI music into a crowded text-to-speech market and helps diversify the platform as its music generator continues to face lawsuits.
