Fake ‘I Did It’ track uploaded to D4vd’s hacked Apple Music profile - KTLA

What the report says

KTLA Los Angeles reported that a fake track named “I Did It” briefly showed up over the weekend on the Apple Music profile associated with D4vd, the singer identified in the report as David Anthony Burke. According to the KTLA headline, the posting was tied to a hack of the artist profile. The incident surfaced as Burke’s preliminary hearing in a murder case was expected to continue in Los Angeles this week.

The supplied KTLA material does not include the full article, so key details remain unclear, including who may have accessed the account, how long the song was visible, whether Apple Music or a distributor removed it, and whether authorities addressed the upload in court. The snippet also does not state whether the fake song had any connection to the criminal proceedings beyond its timing and the artist profile it appeared on.

The development matters because an unauthorized upload with a provocative title can create public confusion around an active criminal case, especially when it appears on an official-looking streaming profile. As general context, music profiles on streaming services are often managed through labels, distributors or artist teams, and unauthorized access to any of those channels can result in misleading releases appearing briefly before being taken down.

Separately from KTLA’s report, preliminary hearings in California felony cases generally examine whether prosecutors have enough evidence for charges to move forward. The fake track’s appearance, as described by KTLA, should not be treated as evidence or an admission unless verified by the court or investigators.
