This afternoon rapper Rod Wave facing more than a dozen charges, some involving a gun.
This is after he turned himself into the Fulton County Sheriff's Office this week.
So the war stemmed from a police call in Milton last month, Waves real name Radarius Green.
According to the police report officers found luxury cars with bullet holes and signs of a break-in in a Milton neighborhood in April.
But it still doesn't explain why authorities are now accusing the rapper of several crimes.
His lawyers say that there's no truth to these charges.
and that Green is a burglary victim himself.
Those charges include aggravated assault, pointing or aiming a gun at someone, and tampering with evidence.
Green was released on bond.
All right.
So when it comes to Rod Wave, I'm not going to lie to you.
There's a lot that's been happening to the point where some could say that the question that I posed to the audience, the listeners, right?
The question that I posed was how many laps can Rod Wave actually complete?
Now at first glance, at first listening, you're probably thinking to yourself, what in the world does this have to do with his several charges that he's currently facing, like 13 to 14 counts to be specific?
Well, I'm glad you asked, whether it's his longstanding history as far as his income.
count his encounters with the police or it's his cancellation of his tour if you don't know rod wave
was on a tour that began in october 24 and essentially it was performing at an astronomical level
to the point where it showcased how rod wave is one of the bigger superstars in the music industry
pun intended so that being said that was off of his last album last lap
The reason why I posed the question, how many laps can Rodarius to be specific?
How many laps can he complete?
The reason why pose that question is because if you don't know, there was a lot of complications with Rod Wave that added on to his cancellation of the 2025 tour.
Because if you don't know, he was supposed to continue going on tour and 2025 to the point where canceling it cost him over 13 minutes.
million dollars and guess what was the reason for the cancellation well one of the reasons we can't
say the main reason but you can't make this stuff up as rob wave came out and said they had a foot
and ankle injury leading to multiple cancellations but then you know what i'm saying i was like
damn look at the state of hip hop like what's going on which is why i proposed the question once more
ladies and gentlemen how many laps can rob wave actually complete now that being said there's a lot of
seriousness as far as this event as rodway faces aggravated assault possession of a firearm
during the commission of a felony two counts right uh pointing a gun at another person simple assault
reckless conduct that's also two counts two counts of criminal damage to property second
degree obstruction of a law enforcement officer to misdemeanor counts tampering with evidence
two felony counts and a conspiracy to commit a felony now of course these are all charges we do
not know if he's guilty or innocent yet but as far as his encounters with the police it goes all the
way back to pre 2015 as growing up in st peterburg petersburg florida rodway faced a lot of
unfortunate encounters with the authorities as you know with his upbringing right we don't want to
get into his family because i feel like that's off limits but you
you know, let's just say he didn't grow up in the greatest financial situation, right?
So he turned to certain illegal activities, hence why he had a lot of stints in the juvenile detention
centers. This is all Googled. I don't even know if that's a word, but it is today.
So as far as Robb's encounter with the police, there has been multiple, several, numerous
encounters with the authorities. So when it comes to his successful music,
career going into 2025 you can see why i'm bringing the tour cancellation along with these charges
to showcase the seriousness of this situation because of rod wave doesn't get on the right track
he could end up in one of those young boy type of situations where the major label that he's under
which his latest musical offering was his track centers for the center's movie directed by
ryan coogler of course make sure to go watch that in theaters um
Um, so he's on, uh, Rod Wave is under Sony, but he currently is not charting for any singles or albums as far as the top 50 albums and singles being considered on Billboard.
The reason why I'm saying that's because Rod Wave historically has performed phenomenal with every single album last lab debut number two on Billboard 200.
Nostalgia, the debut number one on Billboard 200.
So I'm not trying to say rod wave is falling off.
I'm just saying currently the way that he's going, especially with the recent news of the tour cancellation that he basically said was because of his foot and ankle injury and of course the mental strain that he was having due to his handling of his medical complications with his, let's just say ankle, right?
We're not going to say what type of pressure was put on his ankle to lead to those complications.
We're going to leave that for other people, right?
We don't need a state the obvious.
So anyways, that along with all of these new charges basically showcase how they are pinpointing Rod Wave to these charges to the point where they are talking about him allegedly shooting at his girlfriend's car, his girlfriend, Minnie Barbie's car.
That is insanity.
Ladies and gentlemen, Rod Wave is finding himself in a peculiar.
your situation and hopefully he has the right people in his corner and managing him to let him know like
i know you're one of the biggest superstars in the music industry but we've seen bigger go down a lot faster
when it comes to not abiding to the law right or abiding by the law so that is why i say this
situation is very serious because no matter how many numbers he puts up on billboard with his latest
albums with his latest singles currently he's not on billboard 200 he's not on billboard 100 for
albums or singles he's facing all of these charges people are claiming alleging that he shot his
girlfriend's car and this is going to accumulate into a certain outcome that i do not want for rodwave i'm
a huge fan of rod wave my favorite rod wave album that i've said multiple times is of the
course beautiful mind which i believe that was his fourth studio album and that was released in
2022 and also hit number one on billboard when that came out so if we're talking about rod wave
and my uh appreciation for his art is definitely there the reason why i'm even saying it like this
is because to let him know this is a very serious a serious situation that he's found him in
and certain and i'm gonna compare to like sport seasons there's certain times in the season where really
calls for you to buckle down and change your actions so that the rest of the season can go well, right?
No matter if you was just MVP of last season, the season before that and the season before that,
currently in this season of Rodway's musical career, he is dealing with a lot of charges
and people alleging that he did certain things to the point where he needs to buckle down and change his route or else.
There's going to be a lot of things that come in the foreseeable future that end
up making these 13 to 14 charges linked to burglary uh uh i said that right burglary no that's definitely
not it why how did i mispronounce that my fault uh burglary burglary burglary there we go you know
i'm i'm a professional podcaster i try my best anyways uh with that being said so despite all
these legal issues right the tour cancellation is another thing i want to bring up just to let you know
it's not all peaches and roses even though you're one of the more successful artists and
the world people look at superstars celebrities and they be like how can you have any issues you're
making all this money well this is how if you have a tour cancellation that cost you about how much of that
cost them a tour cancellation that cost him over 13 million dollars because if you don't know you need
production and things in that nature so if you cancel you still have to pay those people they they
was producing right getting all the tools and necessary resources for the rest of your tour in 2025 you
canceled it so it cost him over 13 million dollars right now you come into this uh arrest which the
arrest happened may 20th 20 25 in fulton county georgia right he was arrested booked and then released
the day the same day on 50 000 to 55 000 bond if you add all that up obviously the 13 million
was a lot more or a lot more exorbitant but as far as the 50 to 55 000 bond and he's only 26
it showcases how they are not even targeting because that makes that kind of lets him escape
with accountability but he is the focal point right now for a lot of authorities and basically
the way they're looking at him is that we're either going to book you for these charges or you're
going to change your way and hopefully be able to maneuver around these because what they are
alleging and what they are saying that rod wave is doing is beyond criminal right so if he gets
found guilty safe to say his musical career is going to have to be on hold have to be put on hold
for the foreseeable future for the to the point where rod way's legal defense came out and his attorney drew
said in a statement there is no truth to these charges rod green was a victim of a burglary
and committed no crimes however he was charged as a result of this situation i don't know how he was
charge of how he was charged as a result of this situation is incomprehensible this will
result this will be resolved favorably so with that being said that's it that's his defense statement
ultimately there's two sides going at one another there's the police authorities and there's
rod wave and his legal team what i would say is there's a lot of things leading up to
ultimately put rod wave's musical career on hold
And as a huge fan of Rod Wave's music, I would say he definitely needs to change his course of action or he would have to face the foreseeable consequences because of these alleged charges.
Right.
So that's ultimately what I wanted to get into.
There's a lot of things that Rod Wave is facing.
There's a lot of things that a lot of people are saying that he actually did or alleging that he did because we don't know if this is, we don't know if he's going to be found guilty or innocent.
but at the end of the day i have to do my due diligence to let you know what rob wave is currently doing
because he should be on tour right now but there's a lot of things playing into the equation to the
point where not only has he just canceled this tour for the year of 2025 not only does he have 13 to 14
charges against him but now it's showcasing how even if you're a superstar level figure in a
musical industry you can still face ginormous obstacles that's not
financial right because costing you over 13 million and you be being able to eat that showcases
that you're in a great financial situation it's the other things that come along with it which is why we should
be hesitant to just automatically assume all celebrities don't have any issues and they're not
struggling with anything because one of the claims that rob wave was making was his uh besides you know
his ankle um but besides rob wave revealing that he was dealing with his foot and ankle injury throughout
his tour in 2024 and having to take multiple medications to continue performing.
He also stated that he's been mentally tweaked out saying that he has physical and mental
health challenges compounded with logistical issues, which is why he ultimately canceled
his tour days for 2025.
So there's a lot of things in the pot as far as what you can pinpoint being an obstacle for
Rod Wave.
And I want to continue to see this brother put out phenomenon.
music as if you don't know as far as the sad boys they are forever they are forever in debt to rod wave
because he's given some of the greatest sad boy music in history so that being said click my link
in my bio let me know one of my social medias what do you think about rod wave in his current
situation with the police as far as the 13 to 14 counts charge charges filed against them
and also as far as the tour cancellation can uh costing him over 13 million do you you
you believe rob wave is in a peculiar situation as far as his musical career or do you think he'll be
just fine and he'll end up being innocent
