D4vd Talks Touring With SZA, Connecting With His Fan Through His Music & More | Billboard News

D4vd talks about his music journey through his two EPs, connecting with fans through his music, going on tour with SZA, how he feels about his rapidly growing music career and more!

D4vd:
It was, like, at a press conference, everybody had their phones up playing the same clip. And it was, like, SZA sitting down saying, “The D4 emo music guy.” Oh, like that’s me. They’re talking about me! You know it’s so fire.

Hey, everybody! I’m d4vd, and you’re watching Billboard News.

Lyndsey Havens:
Hey, I’m Lyndsey Havens for Billboard News. And we are here with genre agnostic, I’m gonna say singer-songwriter D4vd. It’s so good to have you here.

D4vd:
Thank you for having me.

Lyndsey Havens:
You’ve been on quite the run this year.

D4vd:
Quite the sprint.

Lyndsey Havens:
“Sprint,” that’s a better word. So if you think about it just a few years ago, I’m picturing you recording vocals in your sister’s walk-in closet. And this year alone, sold-out tour, two EPs. If you had to describe what 2023 has been like for you, how could you put into words?

D4vd:
Absolutely “blessed roller coaster.” Like, front-row seat on a roller coaster. Honestly, and it goes this way, it goes that way, it goes every which way. It’s honestly just been a wild ride.

Lyndsey Havens:
Has there been one moment that has surprised you the most?

D4vd:
SZA tour honestly. Honestly, it was like, months and months of seeing her to this moment. And I was just completely like, starstruck. It wasn’t even real to me when I heard the news.
