This Wrapper searches for lyrics for your favorite songs. You don't need to enter any credentials or register your account.

This Wrapper uses a built-in cache to cache already searched songs and avoid getting rate-limited

This Wrapper uses Genius as data source. This isn't an official API. We are not partnered with Genius or anything similar

Create an instance of MusicLyricsClient.

MusicLyricsClient client = new MusicLyricsClient();

You can use the searchSong method to search for songs. This returns an Arraylist of MusicData objects, because there could be multiple results for one song name.

MusicLyricsClient client = new MusicLyricsClient();
ArrayList<MusicData> songs = client.searchSong("Michael Jackson");

if(songs.isEmpty()) {
    System.out.println("No songs found");
} else {
    System.out.println(songs.get(0).getTitle());
}

The MusicData object just contains simple information like the title or the id (internally handled) but it also contains an image of the song if you want to have a preview. The MusicData object doesn't contain lyrics.

If you want to fetch lyrics without searching for songs you can just use the fetchLyrics method. You can search for lyrics just with your search term and without using the searchSong method.

It's recommended to use the searchSong method first, because there could be multiple songs matching your search term. You can filter the songs first and fetch the lyrics after you found the right song.

MusicLyricsClient client = new MusicLyricsClient();
MusicLyrics lyrics = client.fetchLyrics("Michael Jackson");

if(lyrics == null) {
    System.out.println("No lyrics found");
} else {
    System.out.println("Lyrics: " + lyrics.getContent());
}

MusicLyricsClient client = new MusicLyricsClient();
ArrayList<MusicData> songs = client.searchSong("Michael Jackson");
MusicData firstSong = songs.get(0);

if(firstSong.getTitle().equals("my song")) {
    MusicLyrics lyrics = client.fetchLyrics(firstSong);
    
    if(lyrics == null) {
        System.out.println("No lyrics found");
    } else {
        System.out.println("Lyrics: " + lyrics.getContent());
    }
}
