All I have been able to find out about Tempted by Jazz Cartier.
A short scene from the video of Tempted appears the TV adaptation of The Cuckoo's Calling.
Cormoran Strike meets DI Eric Wardle to discuss Lula Landry's death. Wardle mentions Deeby Macc and Strike doesn't recognise the name. Later, while walking outdoors he asks Robin if she knows who Deeby Macc is, and she says yes, and on their return to the office she finds the video to show him, and says, 'So, this is Deeby.'
This is the video on YouTube:
Also available via a range of music services online, list via Jazz's website.

Regarding the video, a contemporary fanzine article says, Toronto rapper Jazz Cartier laid out his big career ambitions to The FADER in 2015. With the video for "Tempted," the first single off his upcoming album Fleurever, he displays acting chops for a big budget action movie. The clip is a classic "James Bond gets captured by the bad guys at a fancy party" scene and, like any good hero, Jazz makes an impressive escape.
In an email to The FADER, Jazz Cartier said, ""Tempted" is my first single off Fleurever and it's an intro of what's to come. For the visual, I wanted to play off the energy of the track and bring a cinematic experience that includes suspense and edge."

The song seems to have been regarded by many fans as underrated, with many comments to this effect under the YouTube video.
Jazz Cartier is still active on Twitter and other social media under that name.
