Mystery in D4vd's 2022 Hit: Is that Celeste Rivas' Voice? Find out what fans spotted

Amid the continued investigation into the tragic death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose decomposed body was found in a Tesla truck owned by D4vd on September 8, 2025, a new controversy has been generating buzz online linked to D4vd‘s 2022 hit track, ‘I’m Waiting.’

As per the Reddit post, the 2022 track ‘I’m Waiting’ has caught the attention of an eagle-eyed user, who claimed the track included a sample of a young Celeste’s voice, said to have been recorded when she was just 11 years old.

Song's opening and closing lines are ‘Alright, I’m waiting, I’m waiting. Tic-tock, tic…tock. hahaha.”

As all this unfolded, many listeners have revealed that the voice eerily matches Celeste’s distinctive vocal fingerprint, including her unique laugh and known phrases, fueling speculation that it’s her.

The track was dropped on July 28, 2022, just eight days after D4vd’s hit ‘Romantic Homicide’ and a year earlier the December 2023 leaked demo ‘Celeste_Demo_unfin.’

Some fans speculate that this could be the original sample, used before her voice appeared elsewhere.

As per the Redditor, who pointed to the tiniest details in the track, D4vd’s collaboration with BoFi on ‘I’m waiting’ has sparked debate for its disturbing elements, including the song cover, which shows an unsettling image of a girl with curly hair.

The track is a highlight in BoFi’s discography, as it appears to be the only song that features a sampled girl’s voice, fueling speculation among some fans that it could be Celeste.

The timing deepens the mystery: this release predates her other known appearances, as “Celeste” only emerged in December 2023.

The track was dropped on July 28, 2022, just eight days after D4vd’s hit ‘Romantic Homicide,’ ‘I’m Waiting’ could be his first use of her voice.
