Every Wednesday starting at 18:30, live concerts are held in the main courtyard as part of “Winter at the MQ”. On December 9, the artist Skofi will liven up the evening with her music.
Skofi is a rapper, singer, multi-instrumentalist, DJ, and producer from Vienna. Since 2018, the dynamic pop artist has been regularly releasing hits that she skillfully blends with old-school, house, garage, and drum & bass, and over the years she has established her very own, unmistakable vibe.
With five EPs and her debut album “Lass Mich Los” (2023), she has already racked up several million streams worldwide on major streaming platforms – and has no intention of slowing down her output in the future. Looking at Skofi’s discography, the year 2021 represents a defining milestone – with her first German-language EP trilogy, “00.1,” “00.2,” and “00.3” (produced by Skyfarmer), the Vienna-based artist moved away from English-language songs and began a new musical chapter that continues to this day. With EPs like “9to5” (2022), but especially with her debut album “Lass Mich Los” (2023), Skofi demonstrates her distinctive flow and lyrical skills.
In addition to her regular producer Skyfarmer, Skofi collaborates with wink182 (Zascha, REEZA) and HARDY X (Nina Chuba, Jugo Ürdens), among others, on “Lass Mich Los.” With her laid-back voice, she raps and sings her way through various genres, and with her honest lyrics, she brings a breath of fresh air to the German rap scene – something it desperately needs. To that end, she regularly brings in guest artists and shines not only as a solo artist but also through her featured appearances, such as on “Was soll ich im Himmel” by Berlin hyperpop icon Mariybu (2023), “Boy Bye” by R&B singer Chovo (2025), or most recently “Kim Possible” by the Viennese rap legend Donna Savage (2026).
Her acoustic live sessions on YouTube, as well as countless solo and festival performances (including the Main Stage at the Vienna Popfest, the Impulstanz Festival, and LIDO Sounds), further cement her status as one of Austria’s most exciting musicians. As her upcoming album “Halt Mich Fest” continues to take shape, Skofi treated her fans last year to the EP “Einbahn” and singles like “Sag mir wohin,” “Tragkraft,” and “Mitziehen”—offering several intimate and atmospheric releases and a promising preview of what’s to come in 2026.
