For those who still enjoy d4vd's music but feel guilty about it.
It's okay to separate the art from the artist. d4vd created some genuinely talented and emotional tracks that resonated with a lot of us. Listening to music you like doesn't mean you support or condone any crimes. Those are separate issues.
Everyone processes this differently. If the charges make it impossible for you to listen, that's completely valid and understandable. If you can still appreciate the songs for what they are, there's no need to feel ashamed for enjoying art.
In cases like R. Kelly, courts have redirected music royalty payments toward victim restitution, and there’s good reason to believe that’ll happen here, too. His music will likely end up benefiting Celeste's relatives, especially since his legal fees (Blair Berk is notoriously expensive) will drain the majority of his $3 million net worth.
If everyone stopped listening to his music and it was scrubbed from the internet, I don’t even think that would be in the best interest of Celeste’s surviving relatives.
