Disarstar, born Gerrit Falius on January 15, 1994, in Hamburg, is a German rapper who began writing lyrics at age 11. After a difficult adolescence, a social worker helped redirect him toward socially conscious, philosophically inflected rap, and he released free mixtapes and EPs between 2010 and 2013 before signing with Showdown Records in 2014.
His debut album 'Kontraste' (2015) charted in Germany, and he moved to Warner Music Germany in 2017 for 'Minus X Minus = Plus.' Subsequent albums 'Bohemien' (2019), 'Klassenkampf & Kitsch' (2020) and 'Deutscher Oktober' (2021, his highest chart position at #5) built on his identity as an outspoken Marxist voice in German hip-hop, tackling capitalism, inequality and police violence. He has been signed to Four Music since July 2022, toured through 2025–2026, and collaborated with Moby on 'Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad?'
