Fake 'I Did It' Track Uploaded to D4vd's Hacked Apple Music Profile: Reports

The fake track briefly spread online before reports said the verified Apple Music account was compromised and the song was removed.

  • Over the weekend, singer D4vd's Apple Music account was hacked, briefly featuring a fake track titled 'I Did It...' that generated widespread online speculation before its removal.
  • D4vd, legally named David Anthony Burke, remains in Los Angeles County Jail awaiting a preliminary hearing for the murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. The unauthorized release surfaced amid ongoing court proceedings.
  • With lyrics imitating D4vd's vocal style, the song featured cover art of Burke's abandoned Tesla, leading many listeners to mistake the fake track for a genuine confession regarding the victim.
  • Apple Music removed the audio, though screenshots and recordings continue circulating online. Authorities have indicated the track has no connection to the ongoing criminal investigation against the musician.
  • This incident illustrates the risks of misinformation during high-profile legal proceedings in Los Angeles, as the preliminary hearing continues this week to determine if sufficient evidence exists for trial.
