Today, April 25, 2025, marks the release of viral singer-songwriter d4vd's first album, WITHERED, and we haven't yet taken it off repeat.

The artist had an unusual start, originally deciding to make his own music simply to avoid copyright strikes on the Fortnite and Call of Duty gaming videos he made for YouTube. That was just the start of something incredible, with his original songs quickly attracting plenty of attention and eventually taking him to today's big release. WITHERED consists of 15 eclectic tracks fusing alternative, indie-pop and R&B sounds to create something uniquely d4vd, capturing a tale of hurt, heartache and unrequited love through the metaphor of a wilting rose.
