Wincent Weiss

Wincent Weiss (; born 21 January 1993) is a German singer who originally gained prominence as a contestant in the talent show in 2013.

Career 2013–2017: Irgendwas gegen die Stille In 2013, Weiss participated in the tenth season of the German talent show Deutschland sucht den Superstar, the German adaptation of the Idol franchise. After a successful audition, he became one of the top 29 contestants but failed to make it to the live shows. In 2015, German DJ duo Gestört aber GeiL and Koby Funk produced a remix of his rendition of "Unter meiner Haut", an acoustic cover of Elif Demirezer's same-titled song which Weiss had previously uploaded on YouTube. He has been represented by Tune Models in Cologne. During the fashion week for the spring/summer 2016 season, he walked as an exclusive for Versace menswear.

Weiss's first solo single "Regenbogen" was released the same year but failed to chart. In 2016, he released the single "Musik sein", which was a success in the German-speaking part of Europe, becoming a top ten hit in Austria and Switzerland. Follow-up "Feuerwerk", released in 2017, entered the top thirty in Germany and Switzerland and preceded his first studio album Irgendwas gegen die Stille, released in April 2017. A commercial success, it peaked at number three in Germany and at number four in Switzerland, eventually going platinum in both countries. He was also nominated for National Pop Artist. In 2020, Weiss released the previously unreleased single "Sag so," a collaboration with Achtabahn.

From 2021 to 2025, Weiss was featured as a coach on The Voice Kids Germany. In 2024, at the conclusion of his fourth season, Jakob Hebgen, a member of Weiss' team, won the season making Weiss the winning coach. In 2025, Weiss' team was again victorious when his artist Neo Klingl won on Weiss' fifth season as a coach.
