Hotel Lobby AI Video
Put you and your bestie, your partner or your pet in the orange booth from the viral Hotel Lobby video, the Migos AI trend. Add two photos: the left one takes the mic, the right one hypes, and the original song plays under it. Cats and dogs rap too.
A Hotel Lobby video for every duo
Made with this template from 2 photos.
The Migos AI trend with your best friend
You take Quavo's spot and your friend takes Takeoff's: the left photo raps the verse, the right one points, spins around with their back to the camera and leans into the mic at the end. Shirts, jackets and jewelry come from your photos, the orange wall and the hanging mic from the original.

Give your partner the hype side, or take it yourself. Whoever is on the left raps in Quavo's voice, which is the joke. Hair, outfits and bags stay as they are in your photos.

Hotel Lobby cat and dog AI
Pets take the spots too: they stand up on their hind legs, the cat takes the verse and the corgi turns around to dance. Fur, markings and eye color stay theirs. Two pets, or you and your pet, both work.

What is a Hotel Lobby AI video?
A Hotel Lobby AI video is a 15-second widescreen clip of Quavo and Takeoff's orange-booth Hotel Lobby performance with two new performers in their places, a person or a pet in each, made from two photos and set to the original song.
It works best with clear, well-lit photos with every face in view. Results are 15-second widescreen clips, ready in about 12 minutes.
The Hotel Lobby AI trend
In June 2022 Quavo and Takeoff, performing as Unc & Phew, played their song Hotel Lobby on A COLORS SHOW: a plain orange wall, a yellow strip of floor and one microphone hanging between them. The performance has more than 135 million views on YouTube. Despite the name, there's no hotel lobby in it.
In mid-September 2026 AI remixes started putting anyone else in their places. Two cats went up on Instagram on September 17 and passed 7.8 million views on X the next day, Quavo reshared the original performance on September 23, and the most-used CapCut template of it passed 1.3 million uses.
The joke is who ends up in the booth: best friends, couples, a mom and her son, siblings, two cats. The beat, the cuts and the moves stay, and a cat or your little sister rapping in Quavo's voice is half the fun.
Quavo and Takeoff were two of the three members of Migos, so the remixes also spread as the Migos AI trend. You may also see it called the Unc & Phew AI trend or the Quavo and Takeoff AI trend.

Tips for a great Hotel Lobby AI video
The template reads your photos first, then rebuilds the scene around your duo. The clearer the photos, the more the result looks like the real thing.
Pick the right photos
One person or one pet per photo, close and in focus, face toward the camera. Half-length or full-length photos keep outfits right; whatever is behind you is replaced by the orange wall.
Choose who gets the mic
The left photo does nearly all the rapping, in Quavo's voice. Put whoever would be funniest saying it on the left: your little sister, your grandma, your cat.
Post it well
The video is widescreen, like the original. It fills the screen on X, YouTube and Instagram; on TikTok and Reels it plays with bars above and below.

Questions
What is the Hotel Lobby AI trend?
In June 2022 Quavo and Takeoff, performing as Unc & Phew, played their song Hotel Lobby on A COLORS SHOW: a plain orange wall, a yellow strip of floor and one microphone hanging between them. The performance has more than 135 million views on YouTube. Despite the name, there's no hotel lobby in it.
Can I use my cat or dog?
Yes. Either photo can be a pet: cats and dogs stand up on their hind legs in the booth and keep their own fur, markings and eye color. Two pets work too.
Is this the Migos AI trend?
Yes. Migos AI and Hotel Lobby AI are two names for the same trend: Quavo and Takeoff of Migos performing Hotel Lobby, with new people or pets in their places. Here the left photo takes Quavo's spot and the right one takes Takeoff's.
Why is it called Hotel Lobby?
It's the name of the song, by Quavo and Takeoff as Unc & Phew. There's no hotel lobby in the video: they performed it against the plain orange wall of A COLORS SHOW.
Do Quavo or Takeoff appear in my video?
No. Both performers are replaced by the people or pets in your photos; the booth, the moves and the song come from the original.
Why does it look this good?
It's not a one-click filter. Claude Opus 5.5 studies your photos and plans the shot for this template, then Kling O3 recreates the original scene with your duo in it, and the original Hotel Lobby sound is synced to the moves.
How long does it take?
Most videos are ready in about 12 minutes. You can leave the page; it's saved to My creations.
How many credits does it use?
Hotel Lobby AI uses 16 credits. You only pay for results you get: if we can't use your photo, nothing is charged, and if something fails on our side the credits come back.
Does it use the original Hotel Lobby sound?
Yes. The original Hotel Lobby sound plays over your video, lined up with your moves, so it's ready to post as it is.
Who can see my photos?
Only you. Photos and results are private, and they are removed after 30 days or when you delete them.
What photo works best?
Two sharp, well-lit photos with one person or one pet each, face in view. Half-length or full-length photos work best, since the booth shows you down to the knees. The background doesn't matter; it's replaced by the orange wall.
Can I post my video on TikTok or Instagram?
Yes. Your video has no watermark, and you can post it anywhere.
