Prinz Pi

Prinz Pi returns to Leipzig: On October 17, 2026 the Berlin rapper will take the stage at Täubchenthal. Since the late 1990s Friedrich Kautz, who began as Prinz Porno, has shaped German-language rap between battle legacy and narrative songwriting. With Neopunk he broadened his spectrum, moving away from pure clashes toward songs that bring together everyday observations, pop culture and social issues. Albums such as Donnerwetter, Rebell ohne Grund, Kompass ohne Norden, pp=mc2, Im Westen nix Neues and Nichts war umsonst mark this development; occasionally he resurrects the Prinz Porno alter ego for tougher tones, for example with Teenage Mutant Horror Show 2.

Live, Prinz Pi emphasizes clear lyrics, pointed storytelling and productions that sit between alternative hip‑hop and catchy pop‑rap. Expect a set that combines precise lines and melodic hooks, leaving room for older favorites as well as current material. The evening condenses his discography and makes audible the range between introspective pieces and more direct raps — focused, approachable and without unnecessary frills.
