Career


At the age of 16, Wenzel tried out as a freestyle rapper in regional hip-hop battles. In 2011 he took part in the battle rap event Rap am Mittwoch for the first time and became the youngest king in Rap am Mittwoch history in the second season. In the years that followed, Presto devoted himself intensively to music and increasingly published free tracks. In 2015, among other things, he reached the quarterfinals of rappers.in's video battle tournament and was also in the final of Universal & Chapter ONE's #Raptags Contest.
On 10 June 2016, Presto released his first EP entitled Gute Deutsche Rap via RecordJet distribution. The songs Jutetaschenswag, Kein Limit and Allrounder were released as singles and released on the HipHop.de and Rap Am Mittwoch.TV platforms. The recordings were produced by Aside and Scaletta. That same year, Presto played live gigs in Berlin, Bamberg and Nuremberg.
The mixtape Endorphine! was released on 18 August 2017 via IgrooveNext. The songs Don't Do These!, Run! (Aubameyang), comet! and Barrio were released as singles. The production comes from Aside, ZMY Da Beat, Sousa and Vecz. Guests on the mixtape included Silla, Julian Williams, Thomas Glenz, S.I.A.D & Stui Crank. Parallel to the production phase of his own mixtape, Presto was active as a songwriter for the Silla album Blockchef for the first time and also contributed a guest contribution to the single Barrio. The Berliner was also often seen as a support act at Silla's live gigs. Towards the end of the year, together with S.I.A.D and Stui Crank, he released the five-track collab EP Gefährlich Ehrlich, which was produced by ZMY Da Beat. Supreme Hoodie was released as the only single.
Presto could be heard as a feature part on the single Bei Dir by Ansen in 2018. In 2020, he released the single Du & Ich together with CJ Stone. In 2023, he appeared as Mart!n.
