His debut album Withered released on April 25, shows on his tour continued to sell out, and he became the latest artist to launch a song with Fortnite. Then, on September 8, a dismembered corpse was discovered in an impounded Tesla registered to d4vd under his birth name, David Anthony Burke.

The heinous nature of the crime has sent the internet into amateur sleuth mode, even though d4vd has not yet been charged with a crime.
