Why Prompts Still Matter in Suno 4.0

Suno’s free plan still relies on good prompt structure. This guide will help you write better prompts that result in:

  • More coherent songs
  • Better matching genre/style
  • Less randomness or generic loops

This is about building real creative control — not chasing lucky generations.

What Makes a Great Suno Prompt?

Think like a composer. Each element you include narrows the AI’s focus.

Prompt Structure Checklist:

  • Genre – What type of song is it?
  • Mood – What emotion or energy should it carry?
  • Instrumentation – What sounds should define the track?
  • Tempo or BPM – How fast or slow?
  • Vocal Style – Male/female, choral, none?
  • Special Effects – Optional: reverbs, filters, analog or vintage tones

Suno Prompt Examples (Legacy-Compatible)

  • Genre: Synthwave
  • Mood: Nostalgic, dreamy
  • Instrumentation: Retro synths, electric guitar

Common Prompt Issues (And How to Fix Them)
