Late last year, Interscope Records quietly dropped D4vd from its label, and in wake of the singer’s arrest for the murder of Celeste Rivas Hernandez, Universal Music Group has helped some of its artists who have collaborated with D4vd to remove their songs from streaming platforms, Rolling Stone has learned.  

Artists who have collaborated with Burke have begun removing their songs from streaming platforms. Kali Uchis was among the first, pulling down their joint track “Crashing,” and was later followed by Holly Humberstone, Laufey and Damiano David. 

Streaming sites such as Spotify and Apple Music are now facing calls to remove Burke’s music entirely from its platforms, with music advocacy group Industry Blackout launching a petition to that effect. “The music industry has a responsibility that goes beyond commerce. When an artist has been charged with the sexual abuse and murder of a minor, a child who was drawn into his orbit through his music and public persona, continuing to stream, promote, and profit from his catalog is a choice. It is not a neutral one,” the group in its Change.org petitions said in a statement.
