Spent: It indicates the use of time without emphasising the depth of involvement.
-
Lent: It usually involves giving something temporarily, often money or an item, to someone else.

Gave: " Gave " is the past tense of the verb " give ". It means to transfer the possession or delivery of something to someone else.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "Reyansh devoted most of his time to music."
