His second album, Pray 4 Love (2020), peaked at number two on the Billboard 200, and included his highest-charting song, "Rags2Riches."
Green was born on August 27, 1999, and raised in St. Petersburg, Florida. He was raised by his mother and father, who eventually separated while he attended elementary school. He began singing in the fifth grade. Green attended Lakewood High School, from which he graduated in 2017.
Green's career began in 2018. He released several mixtapes independently prior to signing with Alamo Records. On June 14, 2019, he released his mixtape PTSD, which included the song "Heart On Ice". The song went viral on YouTube and TikTok, peaking at number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Green's debut album, Ghetto Gospel was released on November 1, 2019, and peaked at number 10 on the US Billboard 200.
Green's second album Pray 4 Love was released on April 3, 2020, debuting at number 2 on the Billboard 200, with a deluxe edition following on August 7. Several songs from the album charted on the Billboard Hot 100, including "Rags2Riches", which peaked at number 12 on the Hot 100 and became his highest-charting song. On August 11, 2020, Rod Wave was included in XXL's 2020 Freshman Class. He is currently working on his third, as yet untitled, album, which was originally set for release on August 27, 2020.
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, Rod has developed a groundswell of regional support through a prolific output that includes 3 projects in the last 12 months. After generating millions of streams with breakout singles “Heart On Ice” and “Popular Loner,” both off June 2019’s PTSD project, Rod levels up with Ghetto Gospel, his new project. With heavy use of organic instrumentation, including snaking electric guitars and warm organ swells, Ghetto Gospel gives a proper title to Rod's spiritual and nakedly-emotional blend of rap music, defined by Rod's unique singing ability, able to switch from a bluesy croon to rapid-fire triplets at a moments notice. Featuring the popular new single "Cuban Links," which features an appearance from Ghetto Gospel executive producer Kevin Gates, and the "Heart On Ice" (Remix), which features an appearance from Lil Durk, Ghetto Gospel is available everywhere.

on Chip On My Shoulder
RIP to my friend, close friend, great grandfather, dogs, and me. I relate to this song way too much and it reminds me that I have faced so many struggles my whole life at 13 I just find how strong a person can be and just keep it all in (like I did). I just hope everyone is alright these days

on Heart 4 Sale
(Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, that probably Tago)
(Ooh, BearMakeHits) ayy, ya
Ayy, ya
To whom it may concern, or, dear future owner
I have this heart but I can't control it
It loves what it loves, it does what it wanna
Tried to lock it up, but it jumped back on my shoulders
Don't get me wrong, it's a good heart and it's golden
But it's been stolen, on top of that it's been broken
Drug through the mud, it's driving me insane
Tryna spread love, pickin' fights with my brain
Don't want it literally, so over it mentally
So tired physically, it distracts and hinders me
So it's for sale, the best offer gets the box
Gift from my mother but a curse from my pops (fuck you)
Kinda hurts when it locks but it'll get better
Right now I'm tryna focus on putting it back together
After I'm done, you can come pick it up whenever
So I can focus on gettin' back to the cheddar, I swear it's
It's always in the wrong hands
I don't think I'll use it again
I would do the faith thing and give it a try
But if it stay it'll take over my mind
I've got a heart for sale, I don't need it
I've got a heart for sale and it's bleeding
I've got a heart for sale, you can keep it
I've got a heart for sale
It's always in the wrong hands
I don't think I'll use it again
I would do the faith thing and give it a try
But if it stay it'll take over my mind
I've got a heart for sale, I don't need it
I've got a heart for sale and it's bleeding
I've got a heart for sale, you can keep it
I've got a heart for sale, yeah, yeah
