The rapper shared a preview of a new song that seemingly referenced his current situation.
On the morning of May 2, rapper Rod Wavewas arrested while in Florida. At the time, details regarding his apprehension were scarce. However, yesterday (May 11), it was revealed that Rod, whose real name is Rodarius Marcell Green, was taken into custody for allegedly choking his ex-girlfriend in the presence of their children.
According to police reports, the incident took place on April 24. Following their physical altercation, Rod’s former partner called 911 twice. She stated that after accusing her of talking to other men, he choked her until she could not breathe, leaving a scratch on his neck.
He had fled the scene before police had arrived, but was arrested a week later during a traffic stop. The “Tombstone” artist was released on a $5,000 bail and is pleading not guilty.
