Last year, the musician spoke about selling out shows across the US and Europe, indicating that before performing his first-ever show in 2024, he had never been to a concert.

“I never went to concerts or festivals or anything of the sort. So it was kind of like I was letting the audience perform to me as I was performing to them. I didn’t get nervous. I didn’t have a mental breakdown backstage,” he said.

He also touched on his love for stage performance, saying: “It’s super easy; I love performing. When you’re performing to people who know your songs, it’s like an energy transfer. They give me energy, I give them energy, and we’re both having fun. Having fun on stage is the most important thing to me.”

Recently, the young artiste was mocked on social media after a backflip he did on stage during his show at the Coachella music festival went wrong.

His foot slipped ahead of the backflip, and he landed on his head. He later joked about the moment on X/Twitter as some fans continued to tease him. He stated he was going to practice the backflip 1000 times.

True to his words, he went back another day at the Coachella, did the flipback again, and got it right, the second time.

Born on March 28, 2005, as David Anthony Burke, he began making music at his mother’s recommendation to avoid receiving copyright strikes on his YouTube videos.
