K.I.Z (short for Kannibalen in Zivil) is a Berlin hip-hop trio formed in 2000, consisting of rappers Tarek, Nico and Maxim. Known for biting satire, black humor and provocative social commentary, they built one of the most devoted fanbases in German-language rap - moving from the underground label Royal Bunker to Universal Music without softening their edge. Their 2024 album "Görlitzer Park" became their third German number-one record.
K.I.Z completed the 'Görlitzer Park' Tour 2025, playing 17 arena shows across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
K.I.Z performed multiple open-air shows in Berlin's Parkbühne Wuhlheide in August 2025, with an additional date added due to demand.
The album 'Görlitzer Park' debuted at number one in Germany on 28 June 2024, becoming the band's third chart-topping album.
'Görlitzer Park' also reached number one in Austria and topped the German hip-hop and vinyl charts simultaneously.
K.I.Z released 'Görlitzer Park' on 21 June 2024 via Eklat Tonträger/Warner Music, preceded by a daily single-and-video countdown for all 15 tracks.
