Dv4d’s full name, age, career and arrest
David Anthony Burke, known professionally as D4vd, is an American singer-songwriter whose moody, genre-blending anthems turned a hobby into a fast-rising career.
He was born on March 28, 2005, in New York City (21 years old) and raised in Houston, where he was homeschooled.
He became popular online after he began posting Fortnite gaming montages. He ran into problems when his content faced multiple copyright strikes, and to escape this, he began recording his own original music on the advice of his mother.
Using the music app BandLab and fusing lo-fi pop, R&B and indie rock, he quickly shot to fame, and currently has more than 3million followers on TikTok.
