The iCloud Drive service isn't suitable for hosting iTunes music. For that you need either iTunes Match or Apple Music services. iCloud Drive can be used to host other kinds of documents and data, including photos, so they can be available across multiple devices and computers. The same storage space may also be used for iOS cloud backups. See Access and manage your files in iCloud Drive - Apple Support.
