With his album "Insomnia," Trettmann made a remarkable comeback at the beginning of 2023. This was followed by a sold-out tour at the start of the year and an outstanding summer of festivals. In 2024, it’s time for the Leipzig resident to write a new chapter, starting where he feels most at home: on stage! With "NO MORE SORROW," Trettmann heralds a new era with a new live show and new music to look forward to in the winter!

Trettmann grew up in the Fritz-Heckert settlement in today’s Chemnitz. Once, the settlement was the largest new housing area in the GDR: a place representing progress and prosperity, meant to provide its residents with social status and comfort. Even as a child, he was able to listen to the latest R’n’B and disco hits on Westradio thanks to the favorable elevation of the Heckert area; later, he became captivated by rap and breakdance. In the early nineties, reggae and dancehall from Jamaica were added. Trettmann was a teenager when the wall fell. With the reunification, his environment changed. His settlement deteriorated into a social hotspot, and friends and acquaintances around him fell into decline. In the midst of this transformation, he discovered music as his personal escape route. He started throwing parties, moved to Leipzig to establish his own sound system, and eventually began singing in German. However, despite the scene hype, the breakthrough did not come.

2017 became his personal turning point. With the release of his second album #DIY, Trettmann achieved his major breakthrough. #DIY became a modern classic, transcending genre boundaries by combining dancehall, trap, and grime elements. This unique style still makes Trettmann one of the most sought-after artists in Germany today.

His album "Trettmann," released in 2019, shot straight to number 2 on the German charts. After a break due to COVID and a pause of three years, Trettmann returned in 2023 with his album "Insomnia," which also concludes the collaborative era with KitschKrieg. In the album, Trettmann processes the separation from his long-term life partner. It addresses the end of a love story, sorrow and pain, but also new beginnings.

In 2024, the journey continues for Trettmann, and one can look forward to new music and a new live show that is guaranteed to be exhilarating!
