Rod Wave 741

Rodarius Marcell Green (born August 27, 1998), better known as Rod Wave, is a platinum-selling recording artist originally from St. Petersburg, Florida.

Following the release of three albums under the Hunger Games series title, Rod rose to national prominence after dropping “Heart on Ice” in 2019. The track, a single for his album PTSD, peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 with assistance from TikTok and a viral Genius live performance.

Rod continued to garner critical acclaim with the release of Ghetto Gospel in November of 2019 and Pray 4 Love in April of the following year.

In June of 2020, he survived potentially life-threatening injuries after crashing into a pole at over 100 miles per hour. Recovering from internal brain bleeding, he reflected on his trauma on the track, “Through the Wire.” Pain, past and present, remains a recurring subject matter in his music.

In 2021, Rod released SoulFly, a 19-track project assisted by the singles “Street Runner” and “Tombstone.”
