“The 19-year-old can rap at a brisk pace like an ATL rapper, hit a falsetto like a R&B singer, and often digs deep to unleash a gravelly voice that sounds like he’s the lead in a country rock band…he already possesses one of the best voices in the South.” – Pitchfork

“Rod Wave Sings Like an Angel and Raps Like a Demon” – Rolling Stone

“In a year defined by a wave of gloomy, melodic rappers speaking to generational trauma, none have stood out quite like Florida rapper Rod Wave.” – NPR

“His music is raw and wracked and messy. He sounds like he’s got something at stake. And that, combined with his actual musical ability, gives him a presence that most of his peers don’t have.” – Stereogum

About

Blessed with a special singing voice, and the knowledge of how best to use it, Florida’s Rod Wave is taking his own path to the top of the game. Coming through with a soulful set of Southern sing-raps, the St. Petersburg native has built a groundswell of regional support and blossomed into a national streaming phenomenon. After releasing 3 projects in a 12 month span – Hunger Games 3, PTSD, and the platinum-certified Ghetto Gospel – Rod first erupted onto the scene with “Heart On Ice.” The single, propelled by a captivating Genius Open Mic performance, a viral TikTok trend, and co-signs from NFL star Saquon Barkley to 21 Savage and everyone in between, was certified 3x-platinum, peaked at #25 on the Bllboard Hot 100 charts and reached #1 at urban radio. Rod’s debut album, Pray 4 Love, debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 charts and was certified platinum less than a year after its release. The album’s breakthrough single, “Rags2Riches,” exploded over the summer with a viral TikTok trend and a remix from Lil Baby, peaking at #12 on the Hot 100. Rod’s sophomore album, SoulFly, surpassed Pray 4 Love by becoming Rod’s first-ever #1 album on the Billboard charts. Lead single “Tombstone” is Rod’s highest charting single to-date, peaking at #11 on the Hot 100.
