As someone else said, it's just a loop mixing app. You could try it out, but I don't think it's worth the time if you're looking to create full-fledged songs that you want to sell.

This is just a loop mixing app for non-commercial use only, meaning you don't have the freedom to sell your music or put it on Monetized videos on Youtube.
