Firstly say "this is my name from birth, do u really expect me to change it" then id tell him to "Fuck Off"
If you are born with a name, you can use it to do whatever you choose.
This other David Michael cannot legally stop you from using your birth name to record or perform under.
A person can trademark an artist name, which prevents any other person from using that name in the same industry --- with the EXCEPTION of a person who has the same birth name.
Also, it does not matter who was born first.
That being said, you may wish to change your artist name to avoid confusion.

Yeah. It really has nothing to do with what I "legally" can and cannot do.
