d4vd (@d4vddd David Burke) is a 19-year-old singer-songwriter from Houston, Texas. Not too long ago, he released a brand-new contemporary R&B single, “There Goes My Baby.”
d4vd – “There Goes My Baby” (Official Lyric Video)
“This is a song I wrote about letting go of someone you love and letting them become their own person. Watching them become that person and realizing that you may have been the problem, but also being happy for the person they’ve become. It’s a mature view on losing someone to someone else.” – d4vd explained
“There Goes My Baby” once again sees d4vd experimenting with a different sound amplifying his genre malleability, this time in the form of a stripped-back, beautifully crafted love ballad. With wonderful vocal work front and center, and a gentle acoustic guitar melody propelling the song forward, “There Goes My Baby” bleeds raw emotion as d4vd sings of a one-of-a-kind heartbreak that comes with losing the one you love to someone else. With a wounded heart, he sings, “Are you sure that you want more? If it’s from him, why did you waste all my time? You were bored and I was alone, feels like someone’s taking my life.”
“There Goes My Baby” comes amid d4vd’s highly successful, fully sold-out “My House Is Not A Home” international headline tour. d4vd has been performing the track throughout his recent run of tour dates and the track ushers in the next chapter in his musical journey – a consistent cadence of singles to come throughout 2024 in the leadup to his highly anticipated debut album.

d4vd emerged as a visionary artist only one year after he began writing and recording heart-piercing tracks alone in his sister’s closet in Houston, Texas. d4vd developed his eclectic taste in rap and indie music from internet wormholes and fan-made Fortnite videos on YouTube, which he also started creating as a homeschooled teenager.
As an avid player who has amassed over fifty thousand subscribers on his gaming channel, d4vd noticed that the songs in his game montages were getting copyright strikes, and his mother suggested that he write original music as a solution. This motivated d4vd to start recording his own tracks after discovering an easy-to-use music-making app called BandLab.
d4vd released a smattering of singles touching everything from indie-alternative to pop to R&B, and scored a breakout hit in the summer of 2022 with the now RIAA Multi-Platinum certified melancholic indie rock song “Romantic Homicide.”

Recorded entirely on an iPhone, “Romantic Homicide” reached No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and led to d4vd signing to Darkroom/Interscope before graduating high school.

Slow-building beachy ballad, “Here With Me” followed, breaking into the Billboard Hot 100 in January 2023 and now RIAA Platinum Certified.
Since then, d4vd has been on a roll. His summer headline “My House is Not a Home” tour currently finds him in Europe after a sold-out North American Leg, which saw performances in Toronto, New York, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles (with a third show added and sold-out from high demand), to wrap later this summer with a highly anticipated set at Lollapalooza in August.
d4vd recently opened for SZA this past week at Malahide Castle in Dublin, Ireland, and graced expansive festival stages at Governors Ball, Bonnaroo, and Boston Calling, all coming hot off the heels of an electrifying surprise set in his hometown of Houston at White Oak Music Hall – which sold out minutes upon announcement.
