7/27/2026 8:06 AM PT -- The fake song has been scrubbed from Apple Music.

Amid singer D4vd being locked up and currently fighting to keep his murder case from going to trial, his Apple Music page has been hacked ... posting a fake song with a voice sounding like the jailed artist professing his love for the victim Celeste Rivas.

The track's artwork also features an aerial photo of D4vd's Tesla in the L.A. tow yard where Celeste's dismembered body was discovered last year.

The chorus repeatedly names Celeste ... describing her as "the girl with my name tattooed on her chest" and claiming her scent remains on his clothes "like cigarettes."
