A vehicle registered to D4vd, the Houston singer-songwriter who became an internet sensation with the 2023 EP Petals to Thorns, is under police investigation after a chopped-up, decomposing body was found in a bag in its front trunk, TMZ and Los Angeles news outlets report. The Tesla is registered in Hempstead, Texas, but had been impounded for a couple of days at a tow yard in Hollywood, California, according to police. D4vd, a 20-year-old whose legal name is David Anthony Burke, has been on tour across North America since August 1.
The human remains have not been publicly identified. When reached by Pitchfork, a representative for D4vd directed all inquiries to the musician’s attorney, Blair Berk, who has not responded to requests for comment.
D4vd is touring behind Withered, his full-length debut, released via Darkroom and Interscope in April. His date in Minneapolis tonight (September 9) is set to go ahead at the time of writing.
