Can you share downloaded music on IMessage?

Can you share recently played music in imessage if your music is download to your phone and not actually bought from iTunes or Apple Music? I've been wanting to share my music to my friends on iMessage but my songs never show up on the recently played. I don't have an Apple Music Account because I don't have a credit card or anything to join it with, so I download my music from YouTube and other websites to my iTunes then transfer them to my IPhone 6 Plus.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 10.2

Is your music in the Music app on the iPhone? If it is, you can tap and hold the song until the option screen comes up, then click on Share Song: https://www.bustle.com/articles/184258-how-to-text-a-song-on-ios-10-be-the-dj-yo ur-friends-deserve It doesn't appear to send the entire song, and it is sent with a link to join Apple Music, but the link does not have to be clicked in order to play the song.


Cheers,
