Burke, performing as Kova, drew criticism on X after issuing a new single on Monday while D4vd remains jailed in Los Angeles over the killing of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
D4vd faces charges including first-degree murder, child sexual abuse and mutilation of human remains; prosecutors allege he killed her after she threatened to expose their relationship and dismembered her body.
Some users defended Burke as separate from his brother's case. D4vd, a TikTok musician known for Romantic Homicide and Here With Me, has pleaded not guilty and returns to court on May 15.
With 40 terabytes of child pornography found, will this evidence seal D4vd's fate in his upcoming murder trial?
Is D4vd's brother's music launch a callous grab for fame or a desperate attempt to build his own identity?
After D4vd’s horrific charges, can the music industry still ignore its long-standing problem with grooming and abuse?
